On World Water Day, let’s work to keep our water & waste water services public! The potential for privatization is real! Current Niagara mayors call for “…a third-party service provider, staffed by professionals and removed from direct political control.” keepwaterpublic.ca @cupescfp.bsky.social
Please join us! Let’s work together to build the Niagara we want!
