March comes in like a lion at Breezy Breakfast.
Ontario uses over 2 million tonnes of salt every winter. This excessive amount of salt has many deleterious effects on rivers, wetlands, infrastructure, and groundwater aquifers.
Dani Lindamood and Karen Rathwell - members of the Ontario Salt Pollution Coalition - explain the harmful effects of over-salting and the need for provincial legislation to reduce the amount of salt used during Ontario winters.
Among other topics, we discuss the astronomical insurance premiums paid by independent snow and ice removal contractors, public safety issues, and the long-term effects of salt on watersheds.
The Breezy Breakfast Radio Hour is broadcast Mondays at 9AM on CFRU 93.3 FM. Major props to the talent at CFRU for making us sound great. Listen to our podcast on Spotify and Podbean.
