Two years ago, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy Council issued a cease-and-desist order to stop Nestlé from taking their water. By requesting the permit and making plans to continue the water grab, BlueTriton is ignoring Indigenous sovereignty. Just as Nestlé did.

So while dozens of First Nations communities across Canada have not had access to safe drinking water for at least a year, BlueTriton is pumping clean water from Indigenous lands and bottling it for profit.

This is unconscionable and must not be allowed. Under no circumstances should Blue Triton be allowed to take water from Indigenous lands without their consent
