There was something going on with municipal government in Calgary and water use for the future the last couple days - they denied water privatization being an issue on the table, but privatizing water is very real and very scary. A few far left thinkers I've read through argue privatizing water would be the end of capitalism as we know it. Latin America has had a few cases documented with privatized water distribution systems - all ended in revolt and riots. It's a stretch to say that would be the case here, but who's to know.
