I cannot imagine any reason…

I cannot imagine any reason why Ontario should be selling groundwater for bottling (and exporting) purposes. And selling our groundwater for less than its real value to us is insulting and reckless. Pricing water to reflect it's real value, including managing the risks of depleting it in some areas and depriving local communities access to it, would raise the cost considerable and maybe slow consumer demand for an unnecessary product. Our appetite for bottled water is based on marketing and falsely low pricing. We do not need bottled water in most of this province. Our indigenous communities do need safe drinking water - in quantity - from their taps. I am appalled that this is even an issue as the only ones who truly benefit on the corporations selling bottled water.
