Abstract

In 1970, freshwater pollution concerns led to the introduction of the Clean Water Act (CWA), which signaled the federal government's shift towards cooperative federalism in the shared constitutional space of water governance. A unilateral environmental federalism approach supported the enactment of the CWA and reinforced the new two-prong regulatory strategy (i.e., CWA and the Fisheries Act) to manage water pollution. This article explores the historical enactment of the CWA through the lens of federalism and the views of parliamentarians. The legislative debates reveal how different modes of federalism play out in the legislation, beyond the dominant theme of cooperative federalism.

加拿大水法，1970 年：议员们是否寻求合作联邦制？

1970 年，对淡水污染问题的关注导致了《清洁水法》（CWA）的出台，这标志着联邦政府在水治理的共享宪法空间内向合作联邦主义转变。单边环境联邦主义方法支持了《清洁水法》的颁布，并加强了新的双管齐下的监管策略（即《清洁水法》和《渔业法》）以管理水污染。本文从联邦主义的视角和议员的观点出发，探讨了《水污染法》的历史颁布过程。立法辩论揭示了在合作联邦制的主导主题之外，不同的联邦制模式如何在立法中发挥作用。
