A lot of crap was thrown around during the recent Victoria civic elections. But its disposal is the responsibility of the capital regional district, which is presently dumping raw sewage into the Juan de Fuca Strait. And that's why environmentalists will be paying attention next Wednesday when the district's 22 board members select their chair. According to our operatives, the race has come down to Victoria mayor Alan Lowe and Langford councillor Denise Blackwell. Mr. Lowe, who was endorsed by the Conservation Voters of British Columbia, is being supported by those in favour of secondary sewage treatment. While Ms. Blackwell, who chairs district's liquid-waste management committee, has the backing of those opposed to such treatment.
