Possible groundwater content

[edit]

I have just cut this section out of the groundwater article. Maybe it fits here but I find it's poorly sourced. Interesting though that the article "water supply and sanitation in Canada" does not yet mention groundwater.

+++++++++

A significant portion of Canada’s population relies on the use of groundwater. In Canada, roughly 8.9 million people or 30% of Canada's population rely on groundwater for domestic use and approximately two thirds of these users live in rural areas.[1]

  • The Constitution Act, 1867, does not give authority over groundwater to either order of Canadian government; therefore, the matter largely falls under provincial jurisdiction
  • Federal and Provincial governments can share responsibilities when dealing with agriculture, health, inter-provincial waters and national water-related issues.
  • Federal jurisdiction in areas as boundary/trans-boundary waters, fisheries, navigation, and water on federal lands, First Nations reserves and in Territories.
  • Federal jurisdiction over groundwater when aquifers cross inter-provincial or international boundaries.


A large federal government groundwater initiative is the development of the multi-barrier approach. The multi-barrier approach is a system of processes to prevent the deterioration of drinking water from the source. The multi-barrier consists of three key elements: Source water protection, drinking water treatment, and drinking water distribution systems.[2] EMsmile (talk) 13:30, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
