Water-stressed BC towns want the province to stop 'giving water away' to industry BC's top 10 industrial water users use more than 512 billion litres of water per year combined, and collectively pay the province about the cost of a Vancouver condo for the right.

The #Okanagan snowpack is already about 33% below normal, and that’s the #water communities rely on all summer. Meanwhile, BC’s biggest #industries use 512 billion litres of water a year for next to nothing. 💧
