Indigenous water solutions: 2 steps forward, 1 step back - Politics - CBC News: There are 71 long-term drinking water advisories — in existence for a year or more — in First Nations communities across Canada.
Since November 2015, 18 such warnings have been lifted, allowing the communities to drink their tap water.
But 12 advisories have been added, according to figures provided by the Department of Indigenous and Northern Affairs.
It's an example of the complex, tough task facing the Trudeau government, which has pledged to have all long-term drinking water advisories lifted within five years.
