   Another month, another oil spill in Vancouver's harbour   
      
   Now try to envision 4,084 crude oil tankers through the Salish Sea waters in a   
   single year (2017) . . . .  compared with 71 in 2010.   And then try to   
   envision that none of these will cause a major oil spill and catastrophe.  You   
   can't, can you?

   Vancouver residents asked to avoid seawall after apparent diesel spill   
      
   VANCOUVER -- The Canadian Press   
      
      
   Crews are cleaning up what is believed to be a diesel spill in Vancouver's   
   False Creek.   
      
   Jeff Brady with the Canadian Coast Guard says hundreds of metres of   
   containment booms have been set up off Granville Island.   
      
   He says the oily sheen on the water appears to be fuel, but its source has yet   
   to be confirmed.   
      
   The City of Vancouver wrote on Twitter that the spill is estimated at 1,000   
   litres.   
      
   It says there is no significant human health risks, but residents who smell   
   diesel should close their windows and turn off air conditioners.   
      
   Police have closed a portion of the seawall downtown as a precaution and   
   people are being asked to avoid the area.
