RésEau
RésEau is a Government On-Line demonstration initiative that focuses on water information. RésEau supports clean, safe, and secure water for all Canadians and ecosystems. Specifically, RésEau establishes partnerships and projects to demonstrate the sharing, discovery, access, and use of water information over the Internet. The initiative is led by Environment Canada in partnership with Natural Resources Canada and Health Canada. Its user-driven focus targets information for a wide range of generalists and specialists - from high school-level youth to water resource managers.
