not sufficient data to enable a commitment at the present stage with regard to storage and regulation on Rainy and upper international lakes, and that in any case all the interests concerned, governmental, municipal, corporate and private, on both sides of the boundary, should be afforded the opportunity and the advantage of presenting their views, and of hearing the views of others presented, to the International Joint Commission. It was further agreed that the basis for an international arrangement between the two countries arrived at by the technical advisers of the United States and Canada at Washington in December, should be adhered to, namely, (a) An immediate settlement by treaty of the Lake of the Woods issues; and (b) Concurrent with the ratification of such a treaty, an appropriate reference to the International Joint Commission respecting Rainy and upper lakes matters. It was further agreed that once a reference of the upper lakes matter has been agreed to, the Canadian Governments, Dominion and Provincial, should facilitate in every possible way, a thorough investigation and an early report by the International Joint Commission, but that pending such a report, the Dominion Government could not make any commitment as to policy. With regard to financial obligations arising under settlement of the Lake of the Woods issues it was agreed that the same should be borne by the respective Governments on the same basis as that set out above for the acquirement of the Norman Dam.

1 Control of Lake of the Woods The recommendation of the Lake of the Woods Control Board that the Norman Dam be expropriated was agreed to in principle. It was further understood that the Board should immediately investigate and report to the three governments concerned, whether, (1) There is some alternative method of securing control by construction of a new structure above the present dam or otherwise; (2) Failing such an alternative being found, under what procedure and whether under Federal or Provincial auspices should the dam be expropriated. The cost of securing the results contemplated under either (1) or (2) above should be borne on the following basis: One-third of the total cost to be attributable to navigation and borne by the Federal Government; The remaining two-thirds to be considered chargeable to power, to be borne in the first instance by the expropriating Government, but (a) Ontario to be responsible for the share chargeable to the undeveloped power site at White Dog Falls; (b) The Federal Government (as proprietors of the water powers on the Winnipeg river in Manitoba) to be responsible in the first instance for the amount chargeable to the remaining fall of the Winnipeg river in the Province of Manitoba; the Department of the Interior to recover cost of same from the present power developments on the river and from prospective power developments on such basis as that Department may consider advisable. So far as the amount chargeable to power is concerned, the basis of settlement between the Dominion Government and the Province of Ontario should be that of the ratio of potential head in Ontario and Manitoba.
