In a news conference in Michigan, Mayor David Miller states that Toronto has not yet reached its water conservation goals and urges other mayors to pursue tighter regulations. However, Miller has been misinformed and Toronto is in fact doing better than expected.
The city set out in 2003 to reduce average water use to 1.18 billion litres a day by 2011. Turns out the rate was down to 1.17 billion litres by the end of 2006.
