Not so simple

Dear Editor:

RE: Bottled water issue, Oct. 1.

I don’t think the problem is “so simple;” people can not and will not just “stop buying water.”

This is impossible, you can’t just stop buying bottled water. Bottled water is a necessity in Canada.

I work in construction and there are no taps to refill your water bottles. All supervisors are required to have a pack of water bottles in their trucks so that on those hot days where we drink all our water, we have a safety supply. Without that water I believe I would have died.

In this day and age, due to COVID-19, closing companies is terrible for our economy. We shouldn’t be trying to close them but keep them in business.
