Ottawa, Ontario set for carbon price fight; court to hear case this week

950,000 litres of Iqaluit's raw sewage leaking into Frobisher Bay per day

About 950,000 litres of Iqaluit's raw sewage has been leaking into Frobisher Bay everyday for more than two weeks.
Since March 28, a blockage at the city's Lift Station 1 has forced an overflow into the bay so it doesn't back up into peoples homes.
"It's the last drainage point in town, so if you can imagine everything runs through that station," said Matthew Hamp, director of engineering and public works for the city.
Debris such as rags and plastic created a blockage on the upstream side of the sewer — where the city's sewage goes before being pumped to the wastewater treatment plant.
The city is working to clear the blockage and pipes, but said it doesn't know when it will be able to stop the flow into the bay.
"That's how these things are designed," said Hamp. "You've got to divert somewhere so it doesn't get backed into peoples yards and homes."
The city has barricaded the overflow area at Lift Station 1, between buildings 1000 and 738, with large yellow fencing and warning people not to use the snowmobile trail on the beach where the overflow is draining under the ice.
Worry for people kayaking and boating
Pitseolak Alainga, chair of the local hunters and trappers association, is worried the sewage will start spreading throughout the bay as the sea ice breaks up.
"If there is any effect on the Arctic char and the clams, I think the plan would be to approach the city and compensate the hunters for the damage that is happening out on the bay," said Alainga.
Alainga said the health of the people who use the bay for kayaking and boating is his main concern.
The city said they are working with the Nunavut government's Department of Environment and Department of Health on the issue.
The next hunters and trappers meeting is April 25 where they will be discussing the issue.

U don't see a problem since Montreal and Vancouver can do it/sarcasm

Three posts to yourself in a row, Princess?

That's Internet masterbation.
Not really, it is a broken function that used to put posts by the same user into a single post. If the owners are too lazy to fix it why should anybody care, let alone a goof like you.

Yeah- I saw that report!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Here is the DIRT on a filthy LIE-beral secret!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


every year there are MORE PEOPLE flushing toilets............................................


but treatment plants are NOT being expanded to keep up with increased use!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


LIE-berals have decided it is MUCH EASIER to blame global warming for the sh+t storms flooding into our waterways!!!!!!!!!!!


LIE-beralsDO NOT want to waste THEIR GRAVY on sewage treatment plants!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Its much easier just to let the sh+t overflow naturally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Save gravy.............dump sh+t into the environment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



It IS the LIE-beral way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Here is yet another article illustrating just how careless LIE-berals really are about the environment. With some comments of my own in brackets):

Raw sewage overflowing into Ontario waterways at alarming rate: Watchdog

From Canadian Press.

Published: November 13, 2018. Updated: November 13, 2018 10:19 AM EST

Filed Under: Toronto SUN/ News/ Ontario

Ontario’s environmental watchdog says the province is allowing raw sewage to overflow into lakes and rivers at an alarming rate.

(Of course it is the responsibility of MUNICIPALITIES to ensure sewage does not overflow in such fashion! And any attempt by the province to persuade municipal civil service union Hogs that they should clean up THEIR ACT would start a political WW3!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Environmental Commissioner Dianne Saxe is raising concerns about the issue in her annual report, released Tuesday.

(This ongoing govt inaction on sewage over flows is CLEARLY A DELIBERATE ATTEMPT to avoid building more of those COSTLY sewage treatment plants!! The building of such infrastructure would cut deeply into the supply of LIE-beral Gravy!! Therefore it is easier for LIE-berals to blame “global warming” for the sh+t storms than to admit our treatment plants ARE TO SMALL for the growing population!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

The report says that between April 2017 and March this year, raw sewage overflowed into southern Ontario waterways 1,327 times from nearly 60 outdated municipal sewer systems that combine sewage and stormwater.

(There is of course NOTHING unusual about this as it has been going on for DECADES! And it is the result- in part of those “out dated” sewer systems that were DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY to dump sewage in heavy rains! And of course as our towns and cities grow- and ever more pavement is poured- the amount of run off steadily increases!)

(It is not harsher weather that is overflowing sewage systems- it is careless govt that considers that pay raises for civil service union Hogs are more important than clean water! I know of one residential area that has had 3 floods- meaning basements full of raw sewage in 5 years! But the floods CEASED just as soon as local govt built more rainwater retention ponds so storm water is released more slowly!)

Saxe recommends the province require every municipality with combined sewers to take action to eliminate overflows using measures like additional stormwater fees and building additional infrastructure.

(The City of Toronto has been discussing this separation of storm water and sewage for several decades! It would have cost a billion dollars to implement such a split in services 20 years ago when we were vastly LESS sunk in debt! And Silly Hall chose instead to spend that billion on Ataratiri- this was to be the grand new housing development in what is now called “The Portlands”! Yes- a billion dollars in 1980`s dollars to buy out and expropriate businesses and chase away jobs- only to discover The Portland are to polluted to live on!)

(But now real estate in Toronto is so costly that the original BILLION DOLLAR CLEAN UP cost looks low enough for developers to work with! And yet- why has there been so much trouble with the Sidewalk Group that is involved in developing The Portlands?)

(Should we ask if the Ford govt has begun sniffing into those LIE-beral deals and smells a LIE-beral RAT?)

Saxe says the province’s waterways are also being affected by run-off laden with fertilizer and road salt.

Yes- and is it not RIDICULOUS that The Portlands/Ataratiri is being developed at who knows what real cost to the public- when we might do better to RETURN IT to its ancient status as MARSHLAND? WE all know that marshes have a wonderful capacity to clean water! And how much would local Toronto tourists benefit from having a bird sanctuary in the Point Pelee style right down town on the bus lines?)

(Would Toronto prefer birds in a LOW COST wild life sanctuary that will also enure that less sewage and other contaminants end up their beaches on hot summer days? Or would they prefer another Regents Park MONEY PIT- with govt and developers working together to produce mixed housing - some “affordable” and some geared to market- and the city is holding all the usual cost over runs while the developer is apparently doing nicely according to some news reports!)

(Councilors at Silly Hall think my questions about developer profits and city hall cost over runs versus having a low cost and scenic wild life sanctuary are silly! They think huge cost over runs are a good way to conduct business!)

The report also notes that provincial standards on toxic waste poured into waterways haven’t been updated in 25 years.

(No- Toronto Silly Hall WOULD NOT want to update such standards even if you held their feet in the fire! One MAJOR REASON Silly Hall USED TO GIVE for not dredging the lower Don River in order to prevent flooding on nearby Don Valley Parkway was because there was so much heavy metal in the silt that such dredging would stir it up and result in it entering our drinking water- with harmful consequences!)

(But of course the City is now DESPERATE for more gravy and there will no longer BE ANY PROBLEM dredging down there any longer! Toronto Silly Hall desperately wants the new flow of gravy from Ataratiri/The Portlands!)

(And the sewage problem? LIE-berals DO NOT CARE!!!!!!!!)

That part of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick was settled a LOT longer than four hundred years. The area was a main summering area for the Mi'kmaq of the area. Humans have been in this area a long time.
And before that they had Neanderthals, Australopithecus and so on.

Before that they had giant mammals, and before that, they had Barney the purple dino.

And we must never forget earths original settlers, the Martians who fled their dying planet so long ago.

Only two survived; Adam and Eve and their pet talking snake.

How about Africans floating over to Central America on something as complicated as 'a raft'?

Perhaps the Oak Island Money Pit was constructed when the ocean was 400ft lower. How much more shoreline would that give the Atlantic Provinces?

This is a bit before Chris and his band of 40 Thieves. They also would have floated to Australia rather than Africans crossed India with having zero impact on their culture as well as China. The US saw it as the 'Clovis Era' that became extinct.


WTFuk would I trust an idiot like you or anybody associated with the loco collective?

To save nature, world leaders should look to Canada’s leadership




Apparently some Europeans have noticed that Our idiot Boy is NOT LIKELY to be present for any of those Environmental Hero meetings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Due to the untimely DEMISE of his political career after being publicly exposed as a MORON with limited understanding of economics and the purpose of taxation!!!!!!!!!!


At this time it seems likely that LIE-berals around the world are frantically trying to bolster their failing fortunes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


LIE-berals desperately want something...................................


anything.............................................


to distract from LIE-beral failures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


So a little puff piece about Our idiot Boy cannot hurt surely????????????????????


Of course once the October election is over then LIE-berals everywhere will go right back to slagging Canada for not COMPLETELY



destroying its economy with carbon crap and trade tax SCAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If they went to our population density yes.


Dont worry...................................


its just a puff piece designed to attract some attention to another useless LIE-beral environmental gab fest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


If we ignore the wind bags as they deserve..........................................


then they will go right back to whining about what a filthy bunch of Hogs we are...........................


reeking of oil and exhaust fumes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The LIE-beral brand is DYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And LIE-berals are to stupid to have a clue how to save it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You mean, slightly more dense than Mars?


Apparently Comrade Curious is MORE DENSE THAN MARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


He has not noticed that Cdns USE PROPORTIONATELY MORE FOSSIL FUEL than just about anybody else on the planet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Yes- China produces way more pollution.............................................


but in FAIRNESS it should be ENTITLED to do so because it has WAY MORE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


LIE-berals talk so very often about justice and fair play..............................


and then they implement policies that ensure maximum gravy for LIE-berals and civil service union Hogs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



While at the same time greedy LIE-berals DUMP ALL THE BILLS on ordinary people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And now that the public is enraged by the blatant greed and discrimination....................................


LIE-berals are calling us Racists and White Nationalists and Islamophobes in a hopeless effort to cover LIE-beral BIGOTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!



Arguments about how many people live in a certain place have LITTLE PLACE in a pollution control argument!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


In fairness- the pollution debate CANNOT be resolved unless we start looking at how much EACH PERSON PRODUCES!!!!!!!!!!!!


It is only if we first do something honest about our own Cdn dirt that we will then be a in a position to morally pressure others!!!!!!!!!!!!!


There is HUGE EVIDENCE to prove that airplanes are by far the biggest single driver of global pollution!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


We have only to cut back on gravy to civil service union HOGS - and thus reduce our debts and reduce the number of airline passengers - in order to save our economy AND OUR ENVIRONMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


As for my idiot brother in law.........................the guy is semi retired and could save a LOT of fuel if he took the train to Banff instead of an airplane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Comrade Curious sounds a lot like my idiot brother in law- the one who lives out in the quiet countryside in a log cabin- with the usual LACK of decent air seals and insulation....................................


and idiot BURNS 16-17 CORDS OF FIREWOOD EVERY WINTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


He DESPISES all the new developments and expanded subdivisions.....................................


He SNEERS at the crass Christmas commercialism of the loathsome MALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


but happily HEATS HIS HOME CHEAPLY using the trees the developers have mown down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Brother in law REFUSES to proerly seal or insulate his home because it would sadly alter the rustic charm...........................


EVEN AS IT DRASTICALLY SHRANK his wood bill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Idiot HUGS the trees on his property............................................


but has NO USE for ones GROWING elsewhere....................................................



except as firewood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Idiot brother in law will happily explain that global warming is being driven by those dirty Chinese..................................


and then idiot will get into his Asian made SUV and drive off to the airport with wife and young adult kids and fly off to Banff- burning



many thousands of litres of jet fuel in the process - for a couple of weeks of skiing and riding diesel powered chair



lifts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And when he returns home he will continue whining about dirty Chinese- many of whom live in 3 - 4 story walk up apartment buildings in conditions that would make brother in law shrivel up like a moth in a flame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



You are not entitled to whine about the smell of the other guys sh+t if the pile you are producing is even bigger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
