GL: U.S. boats in Canadian waters

[Warren Hall]

 I knew we'd hear a lot of feedback on this one, let's try and keep it
straight. Transport Canada states that the rules only apply to Ontario waters
and a few inland lakes in BC and Manitoba. Therefore if you are 3 miles off
Nova Scotia , hold it in or let it flow!
There was no mention of incinerating toilets, they are by their nature holding
tanks without overboard discharge. The end product is supposed to be dry and
meant to be carried ashore.
I totally agree that it is a pain in the butt to remove discharge hoses.
The tone of several posts on this topic seem to denote a bit of outrage that
we should have to put up with these rules. We would all do well to remember
that that we are privileged to be allowed unrestricted access to cruise in
Canadian waters, unlike many other much more restrictive countries.

  What if you are coastal cruising up the Nova Scotia coast and want to go off
  shore 3 miles to discharge?
