Global: Keep water in public hands

On or around Wednesday March 22, people in nearly 50 communities across the country will join together in public forums, "water walks," film showings and other events with a key message--keep water in public hands. KAIROS, Development and Peace, the Council of Canadians and CUPE all believe that equitable access to water is best accomplished when water and water services remain public, despite an increasing global trend towards commodification and privatization.
