Canada: Trump wants (also) our water…

It turns out that President-elect Donald Trump, who will enter the White House on January 20, would like to draw water from the “very large faucet” flowing from the North to water California. He dangled the possibility of pumping “millions of gallons of water” last October, while attending a press conference — you couldn’t make this up! — on one of his golf courses near Los Angeles.

He wants to get his hands on this resource, which is sorely lacking in this populous American state. He is targeting the Columbia River in British Columbia.

He thus leads Californians to believe that they will soon have water like they have never had before. It is crystal clear: he promises miracles, but all this is just a mirage.
