"Protozoa are a diverse group of microorganisms. Most are free-living organisms that can reside in fresh water and pose no risk to human health. Some enteric protozoa are pathogenic and have been associated with drinking water related outbreaks. The main protozoa of concern in Canada are Giardia and Cryptosporidium. They may be found in water following direct or indirect contamination by the faeces of humans or other animals. Person-to-person transmission is a major route of exposure for both Giardia and Cryptosporidium"--Executive summary, page 1.
