This is the info shown for the  Cowichan, the last line shows power restriction "on parts"
My question is, how do you find out what parts? Can't find any info anywhere

it's usually posted on the parts. You might try calling Gord's Fly box in Lake Cowichan 250) 932-9309 or Bucky's Sport Shop in duncan 1-800-667-7270

Found mention of a power restriction(9.9 hp) from the trestle to the highway bridge in Duncan. There was no source given for the restriction, so it could be law or just internet rumour. 

[RalphH]

specific restrictions are in the Transportation Act for Canada Regulations.

it's a mess. Several tables for the various restrictions by Province and not in alphabetical order.

Found a restriction in the tables mentioned by "RalphH". "From the Greendale Road trestle in Lake Cowichan village to the highway bridge in Duncan - 7.45 kilowatt"  That's 9,9 hp.

Gord is closing up his fly box but there is also Gone Fishing in Duncan (778) 455-1414 to give a call to.

It's always been 9.9 hp from Lake Cowichan to Duncan. Most use them in the upper..
