食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊   據(jù)外媒報道，近日加拿大卑詩省政府出臺法規(guī)，2016年起瓶裝水公司從本省抽取地下水需付費，每百萬升地下水僅付費2.25元。

    然而這個水費價格，引發(fā)批評。省新民主黨評論員賀柏特（Spencer Chandra Herbert）指責說，省府地下水費政策，看起來對個人“漫天要價”，而對私營公司則“實際上為零”。

    部分原文報道如下：

    B.C.'s Water Sustainability Act （WSA）， which comes into effect next January and replaces the province's century-old water legislation, has been heralded as a major step forward. But politicians and experts are raising doubts over whether the newly announced water fees may be too low to cover the cost of the program, asking if the act simply won't be implemented properly, or if taxpayers could end up picking up the bill.

    Last month, the government unveiled the new water pricing structure, which will include, for the first time in B.C.'s history, groundwater being regulated and subject to fees and rentals.

    Critics said that, while it's a step in the right direction, the prices are still not close to capturing the resource's value.
