There is also a law which a lot of Americans that boat in the Canadian
waters of the Great Lakes do not know about. "Porta Potties" are
prohibited. Your vessel must have a marine sanitation device, which is
permanently installed, with pump out capabilites. No overboard discharge
valves are allowed.

That law is fairly strictly enforced against Canadian flagged vessels,
but transient vessels with portapotties and overboard discharge
capability have never had a problem--at least none that I've ever heard
of in nearly 20 years--provided their systems are properly secured and
they don't dump their portpotties overboard.
