  3. The Red River between the Dakotas and Minnesota runs north up to Hudson Bay so they're stealing our water as well!

  6. 80-90% of the Milk river flows come from the USA via a diversion of the St Mary river in Montana.

  7. The South Eastern corner of British Columbia has all of its water go south through the States. The Columbia River Basin covers 258,000 square miles and includes parts of seven states and one Canadian province.

    In its 1,200 mile course to the ocean, the river flows through four mountain ranges and drains more water to the Pacific Ocean than any other river in North or South America. There are 19 hydroelectric dams providing half of the region's electricity.
    There was once a short film about the damage should the Mica and Revelstoke Dams be breached - in 48 hours, the tidal wave would wipe out the Grand Coulee and everything below it.
