Just as a point of interest, there have been several dozen studies on the question you raise, and it turns out that the paltry amount of nutrients and waste pumped into the strait is insignificant. As a matter of fact, you cannot even detect the presence of the outflow until you are within 30 feet of it on the bottom.

Nonetheless, due to the shouts, screams and cries of the uninformed masses like yourself and the enviro-weenies, we are about to WASTE about a billion and a half dollars just to shut the ignoramus’ mouths.

Good night, sir

“...there have been several dozen studies on the question you raise...”

Then you should have no trouble directing me to one of them.

“...the paltry amount of nutrients and waste pumped into the strait is insignificant...”

Well, I wouldn’t call 120 million liters per day paltry or insignificant.

“...you cannot even detect the presence of the outflow until you are within 30 feet of it...”

Directly contradicted by the Victoria Capital Regional District’s own data. And don’t you think that currents or biological activity could transport pollutants or toxins?

“...due to the shouts, screams and cries of the uninformed masses like yourself and the enviro-weenies...”

You know, generally when one resorts to ad hominem attacks, it could be said their argument lacks, shall we say, veracity? All that aside, I’m somehow gratified when folks refrain from pouring their shit in a common resource like water, aren’t you?
