TAPThirst (Tap-Drinkers Against Privatization) started in 2007 as a working group of Q-PIRG and was later funded by the Sustainability Action Fund. TAPThirst was an active radical student group on campus from 2007-2012. This group was dedicated to promoting awareness of the social, environmental and monetary costs of the bottled water industry, and water privatization as a whole. One major success was the elimination of the sales of bottled water from Concordia University in 2010 (Source: Chevrier, Erik 2022). They also worked with the University to improve infrastructure of public drinking water.
