"Barlow's documentation of the very real threat to the global water supply is important reading as Canada faces key end-of-year deadlines regarding new pipeline development and meeting the targets of the Paris climate agreement." -- Quill & Quire
"Boiling Point is a rallying cry -- a critical call to action." -- Herizons Magazine
"An insane road trip to the Canadian water apocalypse courtesy of the corporate forces of ignorance and greed, and a blueprint for a rational, prosperous and dignified future by the visionary prophet of democracy and sustainability." -- Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
"Maude Barlow is one of our planet's greatest water defenders. In this indispensable book, she brings her hard-won wisdom home, demonstrating that Canada is already in the midst of our own water crisis. With great warmth and precision, she also shows that by taking up the call for 'water justice' -- so intimately connected to other struggles -- we can start to build the society we want. This book has all the facts, forceful analysis, and moral clarity that Canadians will need to wake up and join this most urgent of struggles." -- Naomi Klein, author of This Changes Everything and The Shock Doctrine
"Barlow concludes on a hopeful note, providing reasonable solutions that show how a 'blue and just Canada is possible.' She understands, however, that while most large corporations will do almost anything to increase profits, the primary responsibility for protecting citizens lies with governments at all levels. Barlow makes a convincing case that both our provincial and federal governments are failing this fundamental duty." -- Vancouver Sun
"Barlow's documentation of the very real threat to the global water supply is important reading as Canada faces key end-of-year deadlines regarding new pipeline development and meeting the targets of the Paris climate agreement." -- Quill & Quire
"Barlow gives us more than a wakeup call. She gives us a call for action -- now!" -- Canadian Association of Labour Media
"Boiling Point is a concise, informative guide to Canada's water crisis . . . Here's hoping many Canadians read Boiling Point and demand the necessary action." -- The Uniter
