CBC News - Boiled over: Rural N.L. is plagued by unsafe drinking water. These residents are thirsty for a solution
In a recent featured article, CBC News explores the longstanding boil water advisories active in approximately 160 small communities across Newfoundland, and the impacts that they have on residents lives. The article paints a vivid picture of the importance of water in Canadian’s lives, and how difficult every aspect of life becomes without a safe and reliable source of water.
While C1W will not necessarily provide any specific guidance on water quality issues impacting rural communities across Canada, it will provide a clear picture of quantitative water supply. Furthermore, C1W will provide a data and modelling framework for further high resolution studies across Canada.
