Drawing on fresh water aquifers for the purposes of bottling that water is akin to theft, regardless of what community it happens in. Moreover, bottled water is completely unnecessary in most circumstances, and the practice of bottling water has enormous, negative environmental impacts.

As well, if Ontario is serious about reducing its pollution, particularly with respect to plastic waste, then permits to extract and bottle fresh water should NOT be renewed under any circumstances.
