A major Montreal health network started to reopen medical services on July 12 after an overnight aqueduct break cut drinkable water to its superhospital site.

The McGill University Health Centre said water pressure was returning and officials were working to ensure a safe resumption of normal operations after a “major aqueduct failure.” Clinical services were expected to resume over the course of the day, including the emergency room, day surgeries and outpatient care.
