It's time to go back to the drawing board on key parts of Annex 2001, the Great Lakes export limitation agreement. Sometimes Americans can benefit by listening to Canadians, even in a time of empire--
"Steven Shrybman of the Sack Goldblatt Mitchell law firm in Toronto, who represents the Council of Canadians, testified before Canada's Parliamentary Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development. He said the annex 'puts further at risk the ecological integrity of Great Lakes waters and represents a significant challenge to Canadian sovereignty.'"
Let's do the agreement, but do it right. A false step could doom the five freshwater seas.
