More bullshit. It goes into Puget sound and Georgia Straight.Also onto Victoria beaches. Victoria's sewer system should have been shut down decades ago until they come up to the standards imposed on the rest of BC.
Of course if you are OK with poluting the ocean then leter rip.
The only "environment" that LIE-berals want to save is the one where their gravy train lives!!!!
Consider the Wynne-bag view of fossil fuels that Our idiot Boy Justin is just as dedicated to- and the article explains why the Kinder Morgan pipeline will NOT be built as long as federal LIE-berals are in charge:
Here is another in a series of excellent columns by Toronto Sun writer Lorry Goldstein. He has has done a wonderful job of exposing the various ways that tax mad LIE-berals are destroying our province and our country. I have included a few comments of my own in brackets.)

Higher electricity rates kick in for Ontario
Watching Ontario’s Liberal government address climate change is like watching children running through the hall with scissors.
It’s all fun and games until the taxpayer loses an eye.
This is the same government that couldn’t deliver on a known commodity like computerized medical health records, leading to the $1-billion eHeath scandal.
The same government that presided over the Ornge air ambulance fiasco that is still being investigated by the police.
The same government that wasted a billion dollars canceling two gas plants.
The same government that, in the one thing it did right on the pollution front — ending Ontario’s use of coal-fired electricity in 2014 — blew billions of dollars on unneeded, unreliable and expensive wind and solar power, while actually replacing coal with nuclear power and natural gas.
The same government that, aware of real-world experience (in British Columbia) showing a revenue neutral carbon tax is the best way to lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, chose the worst way.
That is an absurdly complicated cap-and-trade system which will increase government bureaucracy and cost Ontarians $2 billion annually to start, beginning next year.
A cap-and-trade scheme that has failed in Europe, where it has been inefficient at lowering emissions, sent consumer prices skyrocketing, driven millions of people into fuel poverty and is overrun by fraud and organized crime.
And where did the Liberals get their advice on setting up their cap-and-trade system?
From the architects of Europe’s 11-year-old cap-and-trade disaster, the Emissions Trading Scheme, of course.
Undeterred by this breathtaking record of incompetence, we now learn Premier Kathleen Wynne and Climate Change Minister Glen Murray are crafting a new government agency to dictate how Ontarians will use energy in the future.
This is so dumb it makes the former Soviet Union’s centrally-managed and disastrous five-year plan for the production of grain — which led to a famine — look like a work of genius.
According to the Globe and Mail, this new climate agency, no doubt to be headed by a climate czar, supported by untold climate minions, will issue diktats on everything from how utility companies supply electricity to their customers, to what kind of cars Ontarians buy.
Not content with having forced us to subsidize the purchase of five, $1.1 million Porsche 918 Spyder plug-in hybrids in Ontario — among the world’s most expensive cars — the Liberals are now plotting to game the car market so that every two-car household has at least one zero emission or hybrid vehicle in its driveway by 2024.
I say this LIE-beral car plan sounds like something from that insane literary utopia Brave new World in which it was the DUTY of all citizens to consume and purchase goods as dictated by govt or suffer a penalty!)
That means orchestrating the sale, with gawd only knows what public subsidies, of 1.7 million electric cars and hybrids by 2024, taking seven million gasoline-powered cars off the road by 2030 and ensuring that by 2050, 80% of Ontarians walk, bike or take public transit to work.
As one auto industry spokesman quipped to the Globe on whether it’s possible to reach such targets in the car market, it “depends on what you’re smoking”. Indeed.
