I'm guessing a lot of manufacturing plants who do annual fire fighting training on site would be contaminated?

Cool interactive map.

Also anywhere near a major airport.

Although no Canada-specific data shows up in there, this video from Veritasium on the subject of PFAS is pretty enlightening (and horrifying, in many ways).

I know of at least one more, in Arcadia, Nova Scotia.
