The Haudenosaunee Confederacy Council issued a cease-and-desist order two years ago to stop Nestlé from taking the water. By requesting the permit and making plans to continue the water grab, Triton Waters is ignoring Indigenous sovereignty. Just like Nestlé did.

So while dozens of First Nations communities across Canada have not had access to safe drinking water for at least a year, Triton Waters is pumping clean water from Indigenous lands and bottling it for profit.

Triton Waters is betting that the increasing scarcity of clean water will make its investors rich. It’s clear that the corporation values profits over people. And that is why this “new Nestlé” must be stopped.

I demand that the Environmental Registry of Ontario deny Tritan Water’s permit now.
