'Wonder Valley' arrangement may be their way around tariffs/costs. After mr. wonderful announced it in Dec 2024, he invited D Smith to meet DT & others in Florida. They want
resources.
NB: AI requires cooling, uses a lot of water ( scarce resource) + energy.
If Alberta orphaned oil wells are any indication...

Canadians should not be put in an either/or position of choice between water security, clear air, healthy food, less heatwaves & wildfires, etc.
versus
Private $$$ profit of oil & gas industry and execs.
Why does the PP commit to an industry's "demands'? Does he not work for all Canadians?
Oil execs reframe demands. PP uses dry erase to demo his support (similar to Cheeto's use of a sharpie): "the Conservatives will commit to checking off each demand".

#WorldWaterDay: 3 stories of #resistance and #restoration from around the globe
Kristine Sabillo, 21 Mar 2025
"More than 2 billion people around the world live without access to safe drinkable water, as rivers, #groundwater, lakes and #glaciers face continued threats of #pollution and overexploitation due to #urbanization, #EnvironmentalDestruction, and #ClimateChange .
"This World Water Day, #Mongabay looks back at some of its coverage from 2024 on how local communities are trying to protect the world’s dwindling water resources."

From #Himalaya to #Arctic - #GlaciersAtRisk: A Wake-Up Call on #WorldWaterDay
Story by Namrata Dadwal, March 21, 2025
"This year on World Water Day on March 22, the UN is highlighting '#GlacierPreservation'. Why? Because these frozen reservoirs that supply freshwater to nearly two billion people are disappearing at an alarming rate due to #ClimateChange.
"According to the #Copernicus Climate Change Service (#C3S), Earth's #glaciers have lost over 8,200 gigatonnes of ice since 1976, leading to #RisingSeaLevels and #WaterScarcity concerns. Nearly 6,000 gigatonnes were lost between 2000 and 2023, with the 2010s being the worst decade on record for glaciers almost the annual ice loss was more than double that of the 1980s, with an average of 370 gigatonnes of ice vanishing each year."

#WorldWaterDay 2025: History, Significance, And Importance Of #Glacier Preservation For Future #WaterSecurity
"Every year on March 22, the world comes together to observe World Water Day, a significant occasion dedicated to raising awareness about freshwater conservation and its sustainable management. The day serves as a call to action, reinforcing the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal, which aims to ensure clean water and sanitation for all by 2030.
"As we mark World Water Day 2025, let’s take a deeper look into its history, significance, this year’s theme, and the crucial role of glacier preservation in securing the future of global water supplies."
