The demand for freshwater will never cease and the need increases constantly. Fresh water even in Ontario where it would appear to be abundant is No Longer. Too much of the supply of what is fresh and potable has been, and continues to be, depleted by overuse, runoff, and contamination.
This makes it imperative to increase protection for aquifiers. It is imperative to stop allowing them to be seen as 'wells' where water is withdrawn, and then commodified for profit. No such permits should be issued any longer.
