The Liberals are looking like pretty big hypocrites with all their promises for better environmental protection and policies then the Conservatives.

The issue is that they have to replace a line. While that is happening, the sewage has to go somewhere, as it can't use that line to get to the treatment plant. So they are routing it to the St Lawrence. I would guess the only other option would be trucking it, and maybe they don't have enough equipment to do that. Alternatively, they could ask all the people upstream to "hold their crap" for a week...
