Lake of the Woods Water Quality


Kenora MP Greg Rickford is looking for more cooperation between Canada and the United States to improve the water quality of Lake of the Woods.

Rickford put forward a resolution last week calling on the International Joint Commission to become involved.

"We believe this is the most important step toward broader inclusion of Lake of the Woods in a international boundary reference question through the International Joint Commission," says Rickford.

The motion is to come back for a vote in the House of Commons this fall.
