It will once again turn a public resource over to private interests. There is another important point that I did not see in your release. I have been fighting this issue on the issue of Independent Power Projects "Run of the River" for the BC Wildlife Federation for a number of years. If we allow water to become a commodity then it will be treated as such under NAFTA. At the moment according to the Canadian government it is treated as a resource and is not part of the NAFTA agreement. With this and like public benefit issues rising all the time, where is the media? We need investigating reporting on a number of issues in BC. Norman;
