Sad day.
it is terrible but something to note is that during any major rainfall up to a million gallons of raw sewage is released into rivers due to the old style combined rainwater/sewage pipe systems. the water treatment plants can't handle all the water at once so i just gets dumped raw. this has been an issue in ottawa and they were suppposed to install these giant holding tanks so it doesn't happen but its still yet to be seen if they actually do this or its just talk.
