Canada has a lot of water, and looking at increasing problems with the quantity and quality of water around the world, it seems increasingly clear we are taking our water for granted. That does not mean that we abuse it, but means we can probably do better managing and leveraging it. CAPI’s two reports<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0017NPwyKK4O6bZiMPp4CNGvWoSQkMvWXO8sWlRpuUOCe_…> and World Water Day webinar<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0017NPwyKK4O6bZiMPp4CNGvWoSQkMvWXO8sWlRpuUOCe_…> are the kick-off to a series of engagement and reports planned for 2023 looking at water in agriculture, including the potential for a national agriculture water strategy. Water is simple, but water issues are not. We look forward to diving deeper into them in 2023. CAPI’s work on water is made possible by support received from the RBC Tech for Nature fund.

When agri-food products are exported and imported, countries are engaging in virtual water trade (VWT). Tracking VWT can inform water resource allocation policy to improve water conservation and address water scarcity. The map distinguishes net exporters of virtual water (blue) from net importers (orange). The darker the colour, the greater the exporter or importer. The most recent data available were 2016 for crop products and 2020 for animal products (CWASI, 2021)<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0017NPwyKK4O6bZiMPp4CNGvWoSQkMvWXO8sWlRpuUOCe_…>. China is by far the largest virtual water importer, mostly in the form of soybeans. Incidentally, soybeans account for 45% of virtual water exports from Brazil – the world’s largest net exporter of virtual water. Canada is a moderate net virtual water exporter, leaving the country mostly in the form of canola and wheat. Although useful, tracking VWT at a global level does not take into account regional variability such as water deficits in the southern Prairies. Tracking VWT at the regional level and then adjusting cropping patterns and trade accordingly could help balance out regional water surpluses and deficits (Dimitropoulos, 2020)<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0017NPwyKK4O6bZiMPp4CNGvWoSQkMvWXO8sWlRpuUOCe_…>.

This chapter, written by Hugo Tremblay, provides an overview of legislation in Alberta and Québec. Both provinces’ water acts and regulations originate from common law which states that a landowner may use the water on their own land as they wish, as long as it does not negatively affect downstream users, such as pollution or significant flow reduction. Québec’s legal framework today reflects its relative abundance of water, its high industrial usage of water for hydroelectricity production, and intense agricultural activity in the St. Lawrence River Basin. Alberta’s water allocation regime reflects its semi-arid climate and water scarcity through prioritization of agricultural irrigation over industrial uses. With other chapters dedicated to country-specific case studies, economics, and Indigenous water rights, this book can inform continued efforts and policymaking to ensure sustainable water use in Canadian agriculture.

Lorsque des produits agroalimentaires sont exportés et importés, les pays s'engagent dans le commerce de l'eau virtuelle. Le suivi du commerce d'eau virtuelle peut contribuer à l'élaboration d'une politique d'allocation des ressources en eau visant à améliorer la conservation de l'eau et à lutter contre la pénurie d'eau. La carte distingue les exportateurs nets d'eau virtuelle (bleu) des importateurs nets (orange). Plus la couleur est foncée, plus important est le volume exporté ou importé. Les données disponibles les plus récentes sont celles de 2016 pour les produits végétaux et de 2020 pour les produits animaux (CWASI, 2021).<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0017NPwyKK4O6bZiMPp4CNGvWoSQkMvWXO8sWlRpuUOCe_…> La Chine est de loin le plus grand importateur d'eau virtuelle, principalement sous la forme de soja. Par ailleurs, le soja représente 45% des exportations d'eau virtuelle du Brésil, premier exportateur net d'eau virtuelle au monde. Le Canada est un exportateur net modéré d'eau virtuelle, qui quitte le pays principalement sous forme de canola et de blé. Bien qu'utile, le suivi de l’eau virtuelle au niveau mondial ne tient pas compte de la variabilité régionale, comme les déficits en eau dans le sud des Prairies. Le suivi au niveau régional, puis l'ajustement des modèles de culture et des échanges en conséquence, pourraient contribuer à équilibrer les excédents et les déficits hydriques régionaux (Dimitropoulos, 2020)<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0017NPwyKK4O6bZiMPp4CNGvWoSQkMvWXO8sWlRpuUOCe_…>.

Ce chapitre, rédigé par Hugo Tremblay, donne un aperçu de la législation en Alberta et au Québec. Les lois et règlements sur l'eau des deux provinces sont issus du droit commun qui stipule qu'un propriétaire peut utiliser l'eau sur ses propres terres comme il le souhaite, à condition que cela n'ait pas d'effets négatifs sur les utilisateurs en aval, tels que la pollution ou une réduction importante du débit. Le cadre juridique actuel du Québec reflète sa relative abondance en eau, sa forte utilisation industrielle de l'eau pour la production d'hydroélectricité, et l'intense activité agricole dans le bassin du fleuve Saint-Laurent. Le régime d'allocation de l'eau de l'Alberta reflète son climat semi-aride et la rareté de l'eau en donnant la priorité à l'irrigation agricole par rapport aux utilisations industrielles. Avec d'autres chapitres consacrés à des études de cas spécifiques à certains pays, à l'économie, et aux droits indigènes sur l'eau, cet ouvrage peut contribuer à la poursuite des efforts et à l’élaboration de politiques visant à garantir une utilisation durable de l'eau dans l'agriculture canadienne.

Plant Science Grad Lounge
by Caroline Brown 05 Apr '23

05 Apr '23

Hi Plant Science Students, The grad lounge has become increasingly messy and dirty. This is a friendly reminder that the lounge is a shared space that we all have access to but must take care of. Please do not leave dishes (dirty or clean) in the sink or drying area. If you make a mess, clean it up. Any items that do not belong to the lounge or that are not stored neatly in the cubbies that are unclaimed by April 14th will be donated. Let’s all work together to keep the lounge a welcoming place. Thanks for your consideration, PSGSA 🌱

Pour souligner l'importance de cette question, Nicolas Mesly, boursier distingué de l'ICPA, a récemment rédigé un rapport <https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001q_NH-XByplOxhM3hWwYNa8Hb_oX3mHXrpi9g0GtR771…> Perspective<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001q_NH-XByplOxhM3hWwYNa8Hb_oX3mHXrpi9g0GtR771…>, qui explore les défis auxquels sont confrontés les producteurs et les transformateurs agricoles du Québec en ce qui concerne l'eau. Ce rapport n’en est qu’un exemple de la manière dont l’ICPA fait progresser les solutions et rend le contenu de ses recherches plus compréhensible et accessible à un public plus large. Pour ceux et celles à la recherche des informations plus complètes sur la politique de l'eau et ses facteurs moteurs, nous recommandons la lecture de notre nouveau rapport<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001q_NH-XByplOxhM3hWwYNa8Hb_oX3mHXrpi9g0GtR771…> Recherche<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001q_NH-XByplOxhM3hWwYNa8Hb_oX3mHXrpi9g0GtR771…>, Eau 101<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001q_NH-XByplOxhM3hWwYNa8Hb_oX3mHXrpi9g0GtR771…>.

Ce stress hydrique planétaire survient au moment où les Nations unies prévoient que la population mondiale atteindra plus de 9,1 milliards d’habitants en 2050 et que l’humanité devra produire 70 % de plus de nourriture. Le Canada, 5e exportateur mondial de denrées agricoles, possède environ 20 % des réserves d’eau douce de la planète et il partage l’immense bassin versant des Grands Lacs et du fleuve Saint-Laurent avec les États-Unis. L’ICPA se penche sur les enjeux liés à la gestion et à la géopolitique de l’eau, du rôle du Canada et des provinces canadiennes dans la gouvernance du liquide vital. Ce webinaire est commandité en partie par la Fondation RBC. Il fait partie d'une initiative environnementale plus vaste de l'ICPA, À l'avant-garde des solutions.
