I don't know man - The Bus stop ad right outside of the Mr.Sub on Main says Hamilton's tap water is pretty good - its been tested!
Anyways, I used the tap water a lot when I was living in rez, and it seemed fine then.
Just don't drink the water in KTH, apparently they have a higher lead level in their water.

What's wrong with you people... I didn't realize we lived in Spain. People would kill for clean drinking water and you have it and you won't drink it? Yea, you really need your Brita. Yay marketing!

I agree, I don't see anything wrong with drinking tap water. McMaster checks their water for lead (They did a check sometime this summer I believe) and the buildings that did have "unsafe" levels of lead had water dispensers put inside the building. So unless you have water dispensers in your building the water is fine to drink.

that would only get rid of the bacteria/viruses...and, as has been said before, we don't live in a third world country so that isn't an issue. |

exactly, millions are spent to ensure the safety of tap water and then people go and buy bottled water <_<
but...I've noticed that my house on Marion had a different-tasting water than my house on Sterling....
