Ontario to look at cutting road salt


Ontario government is starting to sprinkle the salt to roads to prevent the accident from the frozen ice. Premier Dalton McGuinty announced that the provinice will took at putting the brakes on the widespread use of road salt. However, they are not using salt much more efficiently, Also, 80 percent of salt is not used efficiently. Moreover, the road salt is currently exempt from its environmental protection laws even though It has been called toxic to plants and animals. In my opinion, they should use road salt because, if it won't, there will be much more accident happen, especailly in winter. However, they shoud use more efficiently and widspread the salts.
