<p style="margin:10px 0;padding:0;color:#202020;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:16px;line-height:150%;text-align:left;">In British Columbia, the natural wealth and benefits provided by watersheds are coming under increasing pressure. During the past five months, communities across the province have experienced an unprecedented heat dome, severe droughts, and devastating forest fires. And, at the time of publication of the Strategic Directions Paper, southern B.C. is reeling from unprecedented flooding. We can no longer take our watershed security for granted.</p>

The provincial government has heard, and has made a commitment to create a B.C. Watershed Security Fund.</p>

<ul>
<li>Co-create Fund governance with Indigenous peoples, ensuring explicit roles for First Nations in the governance and leadership structure, recognition of Indigenous rights and authority, and principles of Indigenous governance.</li>
<li>Establish the Fund to provide consistent, sustainable funding in the range of $50 to $100 million annually over the long term.</li>
<li>Implement a layered financing model, including a one-time provincial endowment of $600 million, revenue sharing with First Nations, and partnering with other funders, including the federal government.</li>
<li>Allocate a minimum of $27 million in the 2022/23 provincial budget to continue the <a href="https://poliswaterproject.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=389657c8f0bdbc7fc5e9dc59d&id=ab40196cfe&e=65afb65aaf" style="color: rgb(0, 124, 137); font-weight: normal; text-decoration-line: underline; text-decoration-style: solid; text-decoration-color: currentcolor;" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Healthy Watersheds Initiative</a> while the Fund is established. When the Fund is established, make 10 per cent of the initial endowment available for upfront spending.</li>
<li>The provincial government’s commitment to create a Watershed Security Fund presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity for the kind of investment our watersheds and communities desperately need.</li>
