March 22 is World Water Day – as good a time as any to reflect on the value of clean, abundant water and to consider life without it.

Hundreds of millions of people don’t have access to good water, including those who live in one of Canada’s 86 First Nations Communities currently under boil-water advisories, or Flint, Michigan, where bottled water is used for drinking, cooking and bathing.

Water is life. Water is food. Water is jobs, recreation, industry, and nature.

Where would we be without it?
