"McGuinty Government Working to Make Ontario A Clean Water Leader
As part of its Open Ontario Plan the province is taking steps to make Ontario the leading clean water jurisdiction in North America.
To be introduced later today, the Water Opportunities and Water Conservation Act would, if passed, encourage the creation and export of innovative clean water technology, promote water conservation, attract economic development and create jobs. Among the proposals, the proposed act would:
* Make Ontario a North American leader in developing and selling water technologies and services through the creation of the Water Technology Acceleration Project (TAP) – a technology hub bringing together industry, academics and government to develop the sector and promote it abroad.
* Encourage Ontarians to use water more efficiently by creating and implementing innovative approaches to conservation.
* Strengthen sustainable municipal water planning by helping them identify and plan for long term infrastructure needs."

The Ontario Trails Council is a registered charity, led by volunteers who promote the development, management, use and conservation of Ontario's trails.
