Foremost, what is needed is that we value the resource itself, because what they're paying for is an administrative fee that is not related in any way to the water they are extracting. It used to be $3.72, or something like that, per 1,000 cubic metres. That's almost a million litres.
They just added $500 to that after they had a two- or three-year moratorium here in Ontario, I believe, on issuing any further permits to the bottling industry. It is completely unclear to me, from the outside, where that $500 comes from. It's still very low. I pay five times more for a litre of water in Kitchener-Waterloo, where 80% of my drinking water is groundwater.
