Leave water in the hands of the public

Opposed to the basic essentials of life, such as water, being controlled by private corporations and especially multinationals.

I am responding to the letter written by Dave Holmberg regarding “water watch should come clean” and his question "who are they really?"

I am a supporter of “Water Watch”albeit in a very small way. I am a retired senior citizen. I have never been a member of any union. I am not opposed to the concept of unions and do not see them as boogeymen. At this point in my life I suspect I will never be a member of a union, but I will always be  opposed to the basic essentials of life, such as water, being controlled by private corporations and especially multinationals.

Now that Mr. Holmberg has brought funding to my attention I am very much aware of the vast disparity between the funding of the pro P3 group versus the anti P3 group. Where did the pro P 3 group get  that huge amount of money they seem to have?

Let's leave water in the hands of the public and turn the Heat hockey team over to the private corporations instead.
