Extracting water and putting it into 500ml bottles to be sold at a ridiculous markup is an activity that must cease and desist. No one should be allowed to profit from water, especially when it is so necessary for municipalities like ours, which has been designated as one of Ontario’s Places To Grow. Sure, we have the wastewater infrastructure in place to handle our population doubling by 2041, but where’s the water going to come from for all those kitchen sinks, showers and toilets if Blue Triton is siphoning it off? Do not, I beg you, extend the water mining permits currently in place. End this practice now.
