International legal experts say George's project has contravened the UN's convention on biological diversity (CBD) and London convention on the dumping of wastes at sea, which both prohibit for-profit ocean fertilisation activities.
In a written statement, Environment Canada says it told the company that carried out the plan that ocean dumping was not allowed and that it could be violating the Canadian Environmental Protection Act. The agency says it never received an application for ocean fertilization. Environment Canada is investigating.

It most certainly is illegal. From the 2nd link posted in the OP:

What is it, if not illegal?
I think Canada has laws about this sort of thing as well (though I haven't the faintest idea where I would look such a thing up). As for the scale of the project, what would you call dumping 100 tons of iron sulphate into the pacific? A days work?
Found another article which states this:

The experiment came to light a few days ago and then spun out of control when John Disney, a colleague of George, told the CBC that many federal departments knew about the experiment.
“All I am saying is that everyone from the Canadian Revenue Agency down to the National Research Council and Department of Fisheries and Oceans and Environment Canada — these people, they’ve all known about this,” he told CBC.

The last link I provided claims the iron was shipped from Alberta. That would definitely make it a Canadian legal issue. Or at least it should, if it wasn't for the apparent fact that the Canadian government was well aware of this "experiment".

That whole system is run no different than the maffia. It's exactly like the maffia. Say you want to do something crazy like this, then you need to run it by an underboss first. Get a get out of jail free card in advance and get the green light from TPTB. T...blah blah blah....

Or alternatively you might see that there is no law covering some particular activity and spy a way to make a bit of dosh from it.
or even if there is a law against it you might think you can get away with something - just like crims have for at least 5000 years of recorded human history

We aren't saying it doesn't exist and won't happen. Only that certain forms of it, such as chemtrails don't exist.
