WELLINGTON WATER WATCHERS

Today's Wellington Advertiser has an excellent story as well as photos titled "Nestle, Wellington Water Watchers at odds over protest's effectiveness". The Water Watchers held a protest march on March 5 to the location of Nestle's plant in Puslinch. The major point of conflict is the application of Nestle to the Ontario M.O.E. for a ten year water taking permit at the rate of 3.6 million liters per day. Thank goodness both for common sense as to the lunacy of handing over OUR water to a private corporation as well as to the activists who are willing to go toe to toe with the powers to be to put the brakes on this nonsense. Recently here in the Advocate (Thurs. March 3) I posted another story in regards to bottled water.
