This year, Canada will celebrate World Water Day with a toast to public water. The Polaris Institute 'Inside the Bottle' campaign is urging Canadians to celebrate our municipal tap water by choosing to drink public water over purchasing bottled water.

The Council of Canadians is also organizing activities across Canada by launching "The Blue Communities Project". This initiative provides community leaders and activists tools to promote water as a human right and ban bottled water in public spaces.

Bottled water undermines the public water system, costs more, is less regulated, and consumes more energy than tap water. Visit the links below to sign up and pledge to support publicly-owned and delivered water.
