This has been reported in bbc.com dated 12 November 2015.
The operation has drawn the ire of people in both Canada and in the US since they are concerned that the river will be polluted with condoms and nappies. But, the authorities are going ahead in view of the fact that the raw waste is needed so that workers can replace a snow chute. This chute is a device that funnels water from melting snow to a facility used to treat the sewage.
The dumping was delayed during the recent Canadian election.
The raw sewage dumping operation could last about a week and, as per officials of Montreal, the dump will have little effect on the fish population, neither will it affect the quality of drinking water for citizens. The plan had been approved by Canada's new environment minister with certain conditions.
