"A multi-million dollar class-action lawsuit over contaminated water began Monday in a Quebec courtroom — pitting thousands of residents of Shannon, Que., against Department of National Defence and two ammunition companies.
Some 3,500 past-and-present residents of the 4,000-person town north of Quebec City, are part of the lawsuit that alleges their drinking water was contaminated for decades by trichloroethylene, or TCE, a known carcinogen, used as a solvent to clean cannons and other ordnance at nearby CFB Valcartier."
