The article discusses the benefits of the water soft path system for the water management requirements of the water system in Canada. The author stresses on three significant methods which could contribute to the reduction of water demands in the country, such as the supply management, demand management, and the water soft path. Such methods have been viewed to resolve the concerns indicated in the research by Peter Gleick about the deterioration of the water supply, thus decreasing the total urban water use in the country.

The article offers information on various steps which are significant in creating a water soft path plan. The said process has been recommended to be efficient in water management at the community, regional, watershed as well as the provincial level. Among the ways include the identification of water services, the adoption of a projection for the community, region or watershed, the establishment of a desired future scenario, and the analysis of the quantity and quality of water. Information regarding the details of each step is provided.

The article focuses on the significance of flow reversal of water softpaths. According to the author, the water softpaths share a common heritage with the soft energy paths which have been developed by a group of researchers in the 1970s. It has been known that water softpaths involved the treatment of a water system and devising ways to generate outputs which are beneficial to human consumption. It has also been stressed that the softpath is significant in energy as well as in water management.
