Iqaluit's water crisis and how it could have happened
About this episode
Since last fall, residents of Iqaluit have faced uncertainty over the city’s water supply.
The problem, sparked by the discovery of fuel in the water, has left residents in the remote community wary of officials and demanding transparency about how this happened.
Emma Tranter, who covers Iqaluit for the Canadian Press, joins Dave Breakenridge to discuss how the discovery was made, why there is a lack of trust among people in Iqaluit, and why they could be waiting for answers.
