The Council of Canadians and CUPE Ontario present:

A 4-city speaking tour across Northern Ontario with Maude Barlow, Senior Advisor on Water to the President of the UN General Assembly and national chairperson of the Council of Canadians, and Sid Ryan, CUPE Ontario President.

The bottled water industry has worked hard to undermine our faith in public water. The industry sells water – a shared public resource – for huge profits. It’s time to get the facts, kick the bottle and tap into clean, safe public drinking water.

Come out and learn how to take action in your community!
