Ten Cents a Can and Strong Opinions About Your Blue Bin

Description:

Recycling habits in Canada are not a national conversation. They are twelve separate provincial arguments, and Bob Addison from Surrey is ready to have all of them. BC gives you a deposit back on cans, milk jugs, and wine bottles. Ontario gives you nothing. Alberta throws it all in one bin and sorts it somewhere else.

Someone put a plastic bag in Bob's blue bin. It was not theirs to put in. He noticed. He has thoughts.

At home the recycling depot trip has become a personal record attempt. His 14-year-old was offered a 50-50 cut to help sort. The offer was declined. The cans are still in the bathroom garbage.

Topics: recycling habits Canada, BC deposit return system, provincial recycling differences, bin etiquette, recycling depot
