Is this coming to Canadian cities???
I can see municipalities cutting garbage collection...
Recycling 'mania' has caused a plague of vermin infestations across the country, according to a damning independent report.
It blamed rubbish collections that come just once a fortnight and the widespread use of composting bins for a huge jump in domestic disturbances by rats and mice.
Complaints from families and householders suffering summer invasions by rats have gone up by more than a fifth in just a year, it found.
The investigation carried out for pest control firms linked the rise to 'recycling mania' in Whitehall and among local councils.
It condemned town halls that cut refuse collections from once a week to once a fortnight in the name of recycling.
It warned that the vermin problem will only get worse as all councils switch to compulsory recycling with fortnightly collections.

Buying massive trucks driven by guys that of course have to make a trucker's wage over little streets to pick up pop cans and egg cartons - our Blue Box program summed up - what a waste, and harmful to the environment.
And all this time I thought it was just another political campaign underway.
