What's wrong with this picture?

I’d like to point out a discrepancy or ambiguity that Wakefield faces in
regard to drinking water regulations. I recently went out with a friend to
a local restaurant and we were served a glass of water that tasted
absolutely awful. When I asked our server why they weren’t serving our
delicious and healthy spring water, he responded that by Quebec law, they
were not allowed even though our spring water is tested by our municipality
and proven to be of high quality. They could only serve water from the well
on their business premises.

This matter is made worse by the fact that during the summer, many wells
run dry for local restaurants in Wakefield. We are a fair trade community
without a centralized water distribution system that makes us reliant on
the spring for our drinking water, yet local restaurants and businesses are
not allowed to serve it to their customers. I recently offered to collect
and transport spring water to people unable to do this themselves and now I
fear that I may be breaking the law. What is wrong with this picture?
