    • The Journal d'hygiène populaire, as well as its successor as of 1901, the Bulletin sanitaire, constituted the primary vehicles through which the Health Board of the Province of Quebec reached out to both the general public and those involved in health care. Although our article does not explore this dimension in itself, it is interesting to note that these journals did not operate in a vacuum at the time. As the numerous articles to this effect demonstrate, Montreal and Quebec's chemists, doctors, and hygienists of the day were well aware of the problems existing and solutions implemented in other parts of the Western world.

Witness the creation of a permanent Department of Health of the City of Montreal in 1865, which continued to develop and, as of 1885, took on increasing importance, resulting in the creation of several specialized divisions under the authority of medical doctors. In 1887, moreover, the Board of Health of the Province of Quebec was authorized soon after to order the creation of municipal health boards across the entire province.

The popularity of this practice, as much here as in other parts of the continent, can also be explained by its cost-saving character.
