dc.description.abstractThe article focuses on water management expert Naser Faruqui. In much of the developing world, Faruqui points out, poor people have no choice but to buy water from private vendors. These entrepreneurs fill up pump trucks at a village hydrant, then go house to house peddling water at many times the price paid by the middle class and rich who can afford to hook up to local water systems. He adds that Canada is not immune to water shortages. Its western glaciers are melting earlier and faster every year, causing unmanageable runoff in the spring and inadequate reserves in summer.en
