The Souris River originates in the Province of Saskatchewan, passes through the State of North Dakota, and then crosses into the Province of Manitoba before joining the Assiniboine River.
International Souris River Board of Control: In January 1940, the governments requested the IJC to investigate and report on regulation, use and flow of the Souris River and its tributaries and the apportionment of water between the two countries.
A further revision to the apportionment arrangements was made by the governments of Canada and the United States in December 2000 to clarify certain aspects of Annex B of the Canada-United States Agreement For Water Supply and Flood Control in the Souris River Basin (link to December 2000 revisions).
