Inter-American Network of Academies of Science - Urban Water Challenges in the Americas.

IANAS (The Inter-American Network of Academies of Science) and UNESCO have just released a book titled "Urban Water Challenges in the Americas. A Perspective from the Academies of Sciences." The release date also coincides with the UNESCO World Water Day on March 22. The book presents a comprehensive country-by-country assessment of the status of urban water needs in the Americas and includes chapters from 20 countries. 

The English and Spanish copies of the book can be downloaded for free.

There are two chapters contributed by Canadian authors - An Overview of Water Supply, Use and Treatment in Canada – by Banu Ormeci and a chapter on water management in the City of Toronto by Michael D'Andrea, which would be of particular interest to CWWA members.
