Dear Editor:
RE: Blue Triton sells Aberfoyle, Hillsburgh wells to White Wolf, Nov. 6.
The investment by Ice River Springs to acquire the wells in Aberfoyle and Hillsburgh is a big win for our community.
Ice River Springs employs hundreds of people in our community and the profits stay here, rather than going to multi-billion dollar global companies. Bottled water is essential – in times of emergency, disasters or when safe drinking water is not available.
Ice River Springs also runs one the largest plastic recycling operations in Canada. Where does all that plastic go that you put in your recycling bin? Most of it ends up in being recycled by Ice River Springs and turned into new bottles in a closed-loop recycling system.
This a great outcome and a win-win for our community.
Michael Pearson,
