We looked into Alberta's water supply. Our three main focusses
were quantity, quality and use. Are we going to have enough?
Is it clean and safe? And how do we use or abuse it?
In week one, we visit Stettler, Alberta...a town still recovering
from the drought of 2002. We look into the provincial moratorium
on water licences...and we'll also do a water taste test.

We've been looking at Alberta's water supply...and our stewardship
of it. Are we running out? This week, we look at the water

water as a commodity and how it might be traded in the future.
And we'll wrap up the series looking at what we all can do
to conserve water.
