Canada’s water could be next conflict as Trump eyes Great Lakes
… (W)hat Donald Trump covets is what Canada has: critical minerals, oil, trees, a massive slice of the Arctic and an abundance of freshwater. It is the liquid assets that bubbled into the conversation in September when Trump, in reference to the Columbia River, talked about taking a very large “faucet” in British Columbia and steering its waters south, thereby solving drought-stricken, wildfire-prone California’s problems. … No wonder Canada, the resource-rich jewel of the north, with its rivers and two million freshwater lakes, including the Great Lakes, four of which — Erie, Huron, Ontario and Superior — are shared between the two countries, is coveted by Trump.
