If the province should decide what goes into the entire provinces water, then they should be paying for it. If they are deciding how things need to happen and footing the bill for it, then they pretty much have control over it. Which counteracts your assertion that they way things were set up over 100 years ago is how things should stand. Your only other option is to have the province decide exactly what we are spending our money on, which wouldn't go over well.

You can't have it both ways.
