    It’s hilarious when you think of the fact that most of Canada is nothing but large areas of freshwater … especially in the province where I am from ‘Ontario’, an indigenous word that is in reference to ‘great lake’ or ‘sparkling water’, generally a reference to ‘fresh water’

    It’s also frustrating in northern Ontario where we are literally surrounded by fresh water lakes and rivers, yet it is the same part of the country where many semi-remote and very remote communities either have little water, dirty water, tainted water or just no water.
