    originally, eastern european jewish...then my dads side moved from Ukraine/Lithuania/Russia to to south africa and my grandparents were born there. Then they moved to northern ireland, where my dad was born, and then he moved to canada, and i was born here. My moms side came right from eastern europe (Poland) to Canada.

    So I guess Ukraine/Lithuania/Russia/Poland >
    (yes, i'm doing the grateful dead transition things) S. Africa >
    N. Ireland >
    Canada

    Well, you shouldn't at all. But you especially shouldn't in Canada.

    Two things - first of all, it commodifies water, and as citizens we do not want to sell our water supply. Because once we start selling water to the US, we can't stop under NAFTA.

    Secondly, it discourages investment in municipal water supplies.
