Surely these people are old enough to remember "we've been there, done that". Some of us still have that expensive "Blue Box" to prove it. Besides destroying the livelihood of many in small businesses, they plan to tax responsible homeowners that already recycle. They could hire a lot of people to clean up around the recycle bins for a lot of years for the cost of running the curbside program. Part of the problem at the bins is the wind which will also blow the stuff throughout every neighborhood. Why does Cochrane have a Green Bin for plastic like Yogurt containers etc. and we don't? Thank you. Why is the City trying to resurrect the dead? Surely these people are old enough to remember “we’ve been there, done that”. Some of us still have that expensive “Blue Box” to prove it.
