I had to go all the way to Windsor, Ontario for the toilets in the house I built in 2006. I am NOT making this up.

Oh, oh, is that the "Green" Police knocking on your door?

Seriously though, the low-flush toilets are a nuisance as is the nanny state.

I read an article here not long ago where the city of San Francisco is rethinking this policy as raw sewage is not being adequately treated at the sewage plants because of the "zillions" of low-flush toilets in the city..LOL.

I understand that it is not illegal to own one, just illegal to buy them here. I declared them at the border (they wanted to know why I only spent 50 minutes in Windsor) and my plumber was indifferent to installing it.

The problem is that the U.S. market is so big that selection has dwindled in Canada. The big box stores (Home Depot, etc.) don't carry regular flushers, and I had to settle for a Biscuit colored Kohler Wentworth at the plubing supply store. I would have preferred the Eljer Patriot. I should have prepped for the trip better.

There is no plumbing inspection (outside of well and septic) where we are. It is quite possible that I have three of the newest full flushers west of Chicago in the state.
