The chief of Neskantaga First Nation, which has suffered through the country's longest continuous boil water advisory, is hopeful water coming out of the taps of homes will be safe to drink in early 2021.

As David Akin reports, while families are returning home, the biggest challenge facing the community will be whether they can trust the purity of the tap water.
