No company should not be allowed to bottle water not just in Ontario but all of Canada when depriving towns of a water source. There are already water shortages naturally occurring, thanks to global warming, in some areas and cities in Canada. Read more

As a resident of Ontario and a Canadian citizen, if I am paying for water, so should all, and Companies that sell water should pay too. They sell water, it's a business, they should pay for the water just as i do from my tap.

Bottled water is an egregious misuse of a precious natural resource. Not only do these corporations not add any value when "producing" this product, they actively harm both humans and wildlife. The markup on bottled water is criminal, and plastic bottles are a scourge on the landscape. Read more

Please extend the moratorium on taking groundwater by corporations. They use it to create plastic waste that ends up littering our lakes, rivers, forests, parks, cities, and landfills. They remove groundwater and we don't know what the long-term effects of that will be. Read more

Given that: - empty plastic water bottles are polluting our environment; - if plastic water bottles were not available for sale people would be more likely to use tap water and a re-usable glass or steel container to carry water for their drinking water; Read more
