Millions of litres of diluted raw sewage have been spilling into the Ottawa
river in the past week, underscoring the need for a $195-million guck-capturing
tunnel. The city recorded a sewer overflow last Wednesday when more than 78
million litres dumped into the river. Heavy rainfall is cited as the cause.
There were also overflows on Thursday (540,000 litres) and Sunday (2.5 million
