I think most people, myself included, hold more nuanced views of
"private, personal property", especially when it comes to "owning" a
piece of the earth itself; which is a concept worthy of nuanced
consideration and discussion, but Scott's views on this are anything
but nuanced.

Is the concept of "public property up to the 'high water mark'",
which
is true in BC, also prevalent in the USA?


In most States, yes. It's actually described as "the mean high-water
mark."
