The policy study and report…

The policy study and report on how to better manage Ontario’s water appears to make good sense from a groundwater management perspective. However, Ontarians understand that for any water taking there are environmental trade-offs, and societal values are important, particularly about bottled water. With water taken from an aquifer, we end up with a product that is, for most, unnecessary and is in fact harmful to the environment. If we are committed to fighting climate change, we must consider plastic pollution and reduce it. Water belongs to the people. It should not be sold off to commercial interests. Water is life.
