Pikangikum First Nation has lived under a boil water advisory for over two decades .
37 long-term boil water advisories remain in effect across Canada , most of them in Ontario .
Alberta and Ontario are pushing back, asking Ottawa to drop the clean water bill for First Nations .
The legislation would set national standards for drinking water and wastewater on First Nation lands.
Pikangikum 's challenges echo those in other First Nations communities, where safe water is still not guaranteed despite years of attention and investment.
The community relies on shipped-in products for hygiene, resulting in significant plastic waste.
Advocates say they want a guarantee that their chief and others will have a seat at the table as the legislation moves ahead.
