The Great Lakes of North America form thelargest group of freshwater lakes in the world, holding more than 20 per centof the world’s surface freshwater and 95 per cent of North America’s. They provide life and livelihood to more than 40million people and are the economic centre at the heart of the continent. Yetthe Great Lakes of North America are in serious trouble. Multipoint pollution,climate change, over-extraction, invasive species, and wetland loss are alltaking their toll on the watershed.

With a patchwork of limited government protection that is hamperedby inadequate funding and differing political priorities, the Lakes urgentlyneed people to join together to forge a new future for them, one that willensure the Lakes will thrive for generations to come. To help forge links andbuild relationships in communities surrounding the Great Lakes’ waters, the Council of Canadians has launched the “GreatLakes Need Great Friends” tour.

Visiting eight Canadian cities, and with allied groups, several U.S. cities the“Great Lakes Needs Great Friends” Tour will help:

·        Foster connections along the Great Lakesby making the links between current fights against threats such as fracking,bottled water withdrawals, invasive species, and nuclear waste storage andshipments.

·        Cultivate a Great Lakes stewardship by encouraging people torecognize they not only have a right, but a responsibility to protect the Great Lakes’ waters.

·        Invite community involvement and encourage inspiring actions thatwill help shift the current market economy priorities that govern the Great Lakes to priorities based on commons and publictrust principles.

Protecting the future of the Great Lakesis in all of our hands. When communities come together with passion andpurpose, they can change political priorities and shape a better future for ourshared water. We invite communities and organizations to join us in thisexciting campaign to build a new Great Lakescommons vision that prioritizes people and the environment over industry andcommodification, and builds a healthy vibrant future for our shared water.
