Les commencements de l'administration montréalaise de la santé publique (1865-1885)
Abstract
The Montreal Sanitary Association was established in 1867 to pressure the municipal government to take action to clean up the notoriously unsanitary conditions in the city. William Workman, who would become mayor the following year, was the association's first president. Approximately eighty percent of the association's members were Anglophones. The authors also outline the "offensive" undertake by Dr. William Hingston, when he served as the city's mayor (1875-1877), to clean up Montreal.
