The borough of Anjou is asking residents to boil their water for a full minute before drinking it.
The boil-water advisory is in effect for those living in the area bordered by the Metropolitan highway and Roi-René Boulevard all the way to the limits of the Tétreaultville area.
The notice was issued following a series of tests carried out by the Water Department of the City of Montreal that showed the quality of the water is not in conformity with accepted standards.
