Canada’s Maude Barlow is inspiring a movement against corporate control of the world’s water. A new film featuring Barlow is making waves at this year’s Sundance Film Festival.

Barlow’s work motivated filmmaker Irena Salina to create her documentary entitled Flow: For Love of Water, which reveals disturbing realities of water as a commodity. Ms. Barlow has written two books about the global water business - Blue Gold: The Fight to Stop the Corporate Theft of the World’s Water and her new sequel Blue Covenant: The Global Water Crisis and the Coming Battle for the Right to Water.

Ms Barlow has had a lengthy career as a social activist in Canada and internationally. Dedicated to what she calls the “global water justice movement,” she urges the Canadian government to partner with Canada’s provinces and develop a national water policy.

“We have a myth of abundance here but we need to take care of our water. We have declining Great Lakes and Alberta is being drained of water to produce energy. We need a National Water Act that would establish Canada’s jurisdiction over its water” said Ms Barlow.
