Canadian water warrior and international environmental powerhouse Maude Barlow spoke recently to a crowd of several hundred in Vancouver on the plan to turn Fish Lake and possibly 20 other lakes across Canada into toxic dumps for mines. The National Chair of the Council of Canadians and former Senior Advisor on Water to the United Nations was joined by Chief Marilyn Baptiste of the Xeni Gwet'in First Nation - in whose traditional Tsilqot'in territory Fish Lake lies - and Greenpeace co-founder Rex Weyler for the insightful talk. Maude and her co-presenters discussed the Fish Lake proposal, the Harper policy known as Schedule 2 - designed to water down the Fisheries Act to allow mines to use lakes for tailing ponds - and the critical state of water in Canada and around the world. A must-see for anyone who cares about protecting our water. Eight minutes.
