Dear members of the McGill community,
We are pleased to inform you that the drinking water advisory for Carrefour Sherbrooke student residence has now been lifted. The water is safe to drink and use in food preparation. It was retested twice last week, with samples taken less than 72 hours apart, as per provincial regulation.
This follows the lifting of the water advisories at La Citadelle and Elizabeth Wirth on August 10, 2023.

Dear members of the Macdonald Campus community,
Please do not drink the water from Barton Building taps and fountains until further notice. You must also avoid using it in meal preparation and teeth-brushing. The water is safe for washing hands and dishes. A routine water test in one washroom indicated that lead levels were above the regulatory threshold.
To ensure that occupants are aware of the issue, we are putting up signage and shutting off water fountains.
