		Social constraints on the environmental sustainability of the Harbor include high population density, with the added problem of the perpetual influx of 10 million tourists annually, and the lack of proenvironmental behavior from the public.
		To successfully maintain a sustainable environment for the Harbor, it is vital that the government emphasizes the contribution and responsibility of the public.
		Unsurprisingly, sediments in Victoria Harbor are found to be highly contaminated (200-400 ppm or more) with copper, zinc, lead, nickel and other metals.(Chan K.M. 1995) Large accumulations of copper, zinc and lead were found in the tissues of mussel and barnacles collected in Victoria Harbor.

		I can’t imagine that any visitor would fail to be captivated by Victoria’s narrow harbor, ringed by the stately structures of the B.C. Parliament buildings and the venerable Empress Hotel.
		The quaint harbor area, which once echoed the dignity and reserved politesse of Empire, is rapidly becoming a warren of high-speed ferry terminals, t-shirt shops, and tourist restaurants.
		In the past decades, whatever actual businesses that remained in the harbor area have fled, leaving in their absence an ever-widening ring of tourist-oriented commerce – commerce that increasingly resembles the same tour-bus dreck you can find anywhere, with sweatshirts screenprinted in Malaysia, coffee mugs from Korea, and faux-Canadian memorabilia from New Jersey.
