Description
The Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators (CESI) program provides data and information to track Canada's performance on key environmental sustainability issues. The water use in Canada indicator provides information about the volumes and proportions of water that are withdrawn, consumed and returned for all of Canada and divided by its five regions for seven of Canada's key economic sectors: thermal power generation, manufacturing, residential, commercial & institutional, irrigation (agriculture), mining and oil & gas. Information is provided to Canadians in a number of formats including: charts and graphs, HTML and CSV data tables and downloadable reports. See the supplementary documentation for the data sources and details on how the data were collected and how the indicator was calculated.
