A doctor is ringing the alarm at Puvirnituq

The working environment of the Estrian doctor Marie-Faye Galarneau has put her patience to the test. Repeated water cuts have forced her to leave.

The village of Puvirnituq, Nunavik, has been in severe water shortages for more than a month. Exasperated by this "recurring" health crisis, which has reached an "acute stage" these days, a doctor who has been working in the North for five years has resigned and is calling for help.
