D.R.I.P. (Denying Responsibility is Political)
Mary Ev Wyatt

Ontario, Canada

Before the contamination of the public water supply in Walkerton, Ontario, we took safe drinking water for granted and trusted our government to ensure the flow of abundant and uncontaminated water. I wanted to show how underground streams, contaminated by human and animal waste, flow into our rivers and out of our wells and taps to poison the truth as well as the people.

(Note: At an independent inquiry the Tory government denied that massive cuts to the Environment Ministry were in any way responsible for the poisoning and death of the citizens of Walkerton)
