Living in a different french-speaking city with a river, it's not unusual for the runoff/overflow after a rainfall to affect water quality. It is typically clean enough to swim 48 hours after a very large rainfall (and probably less - that's the 'rule of thumb'). That's the cool thing about rivers: they are not stagnant.
