Welcome To The
Concerned Walkerton Citizens
Website
In 2000 the
town of Walkerton, Ontario was devasted when its drinking water supply
was contaminated by a deadly strain of e-coli bacteria. The comunity
struggled and ultimately succeeded in restoring its drinking water and
finally its reputation as a great place to live and raise a family.
This recovery would not have been possible without the tremendous
asistance of the people and the Government of Ontario, which provided
the vital technical and economical support required to rebuild a
shattered comunity.
Today
Walkerton has completed the journey from the scene of water infamy to
the site of water excellence, as it provides training, research and
outreach to the rest of the province and beyond. The restoration of
the drinking water was the first stage in the recovery, without
which we would have ceased to exist as a viable comunity.
