Best water plant in Quebec will be shut down
The Lachine water filtration plant that’s been awarded for producing the best municipal water in Quebec is slated to be shut down within the next ten years because it’s decrepit. Maybe before they close it, the authorities should study what it’s doing right?

I don’t think there’s a need for such a study (Shhh, they might do one, and another one, and another one), it’s well known how to best treat water. It just cost a lot of money and most municipalities in Quebec just go for the cheap method of using a lot of chlorine. Montreal unfortunately also uses *some* chlorine so it’s not the best tasting drinking water in the world. Still better than in most other cities in NA. Too bad So much of it never makes it to a tap.
