Dear Sirs,

I live in Elora and have been fighting (along with Save Our Water) for several years now. I am not a vigilante and only took this on as a project desperately needing our attention. I have three grand children living in the area and it is imperative we fight for our water rights for their sake. It is absolutely a crime to think a bottling company wants to drain our aquifer for profit. It is ludicrous to think that we as a growing community is going to sit back and let that happen. Water takers around the world are committing a grave crime and sin muscling in on a commodity that should NEVER BE FOR SALE. What has this world coming to if we as citizens of our own domain let this happen.

I ask you: In this day in age with pollution running rampant, and large corporations coming into small communities to steal our resources for profit, how is this fair and where is the justice? Where is the reasoning behind all this. Shouldn't our municipality have some say in this. HOW IS THIS REASONABLE! Please, do not let this corporation steal a precious resource: our drinking water. Please change the water taking laws and give what happens to our community some say, some power in what happens in its outcomes for future generations.
