If I was you Stinky, I'd be more worried about a senile John
accidentally flushing his bowl and sending you on a journey to the sea.


Wow! That was--insane! It's one fr the Mrs. White file. Poor lady
probably has no idea what keys dumb Don is punching on his Playbook!

Flushing toilets into the harbour is only done in Halifax NS. A
disgusting practice that was abandoned in civilized shoreside cities.


It is a Canada thing. Victoria also dumps untreated sewage in to the sea.

Once you get over the yuck factor, poop is very biodegradable and
there is no long term damage that you wouldn't have from treated
sewage (mostly nutrients). In the short term it can be a very bad
thing locally tho (many diseases come from that).
If they want to turn their harbor into a septic tank, it doesn't
bother me much. I am not swimming there anyway. The water is too cold
;-)




Vancouver island has some very nice swimming beaches. Even you could swim.
The 13' plus tides uncover huge amounts of sand beaches, and they warm up
in the sun. Tide comes in and they have 75 degree water.
