AI Article Summary
The northern Quebec municipality of Puvirnituq has been without running water since mid-March due to a frozen pipeline, forcing residents to rely on melting snow and an airlift of bottled water for daily consumption. Efforts to extinguish a recent house fire were hampered by the water shortage, prompting the mayor to declare a state of emergency. The government has flown in over 54,000 liters of water and plans to repair the pipeline soon to resolve the crisis.
