Synopsis
This book discusses the waters and waterways of Ontario, Canada, their economic value to the province, and the need for their conservation. The author, an experienced surveyor and mining engineer, argues that lakes, rivers, and streams are essential to the province's economy and should be protected from exploitation. He provides a detailed analysis of the water resources of Ontario, including the potential for hydroelectric power generation and the importance of water for transportation and recreation. The book also examines the legal framework for water resources management in Ontario and the challenges posed by pollution and climate change. Ultimately, the author argues that water is a precious resource that must be sustainably managed for the benefit of present and future generations.
