The Columbia River treaty and the St Lawrence Seaway are two examples of "we build it, they fund it, they get all the benefit, we get all the pollution." We sell Hydro power to the States for nothing and we get to kill our Salmon. If it was such a good idea to build the dam and they needed the power so much, why did we not fund it ourselves and control the fish return downstream and upstream so that they were not killed, AND get a proper price per watthour from the Yanks. If they needed the power, I cannot imagine a better recommendation to a banker to underwrite. And right now and then too they do need and did need the power.

I know a way that Salmon need not be killed by dams, but dammed if I will tell them for nothing. Patent or nothing. But it needs trial and patents are expensive, and in the end they will not pay.
