The amount of sewage and wastewater Canada discharges into its waterways is increasing. This is despite regulations introduced in 2012 to curb the problem. Concern is growing among those who fear for the health of Canadians and the environment. Each year, Canada discharges 200 billion liters of raw sewage into its waterways, rivers and oceans.

Yes, and pursue those directly responsible for damage to lakes and rivers
@B4VB3F31yr1Y
Yes, although we need it, we cannot afford it right now, also pursue those directly responsible for damage to lakes and rivers and and drastically reduce government spending wherever and whenever possible ethically and realistically
@B38NWBT1yr1Y
They don't need to spend any money on the research. They already know where most of it comes from (animal agriculture).
@B27F3VN1yr1Y
Yes, but the $1 billion budget is too high, and the government should also actively pursue those directly responsible for damage to lakes and rivers so that they can cut the problem off at the roots and prevent future repeats of this spending.
@9ZNXRCY1yr1Y
Yes but significantly reduce the budget and also pursue those who are directly responsible for damage to lakes and rivers
@9SLJBJV2yrs2Y
Yes, , but the price is too high for government funding. Have those responsible for the damage pay as well to exceed the $1 billion

@9MC4BQL2yrs2Y
Yes but 1 billion sounds high. I'd have to compare to the budget and the allocation of the other funds.
