Dr. Macauley. Across the whole channel and all the way up.

Mr. Powell. Has any opposition on the part of the citizens to purification of the sewage, or sterilization of it, ever manifested itself?

Dr. Macauley. I think not. It has been mooted, but no definite action has been taken.

Mr. Powell. Why was not definite action taken in compliance with the request of the provincial board?

Dr. Macauley. I think the lack of funds was the main thing.

Mr. Mignault. Did you ever have studies made as to sewage treatment in Brockville?

Dr. Macauley. No; I think not; not for Brockville especially.

Mr. Magrath. It is just your water supply that you are contemplating improving?

Dr. Macauley. At the present time that is all. We know that we shall have to improve the other in time. No doubt it is dangerous.

Mr. Mignault. But you have not seriously considered it so far?
