Great. This has been going on in the USA for a decade now (they're immune to the clean water drinking act there). I had hoped in Canada we'd avoid this garbage. I guess not.

So if there's no drilling........there's no Methane gas? Isn't the gas already there, or maybe it was her water drill that did it?

The FDA sets a myriad of standards for potable water in the USA and then the various states, such as California, ofter have even stricter standards.
