Are the rubbish police coming to Canada

This is actually happening in the UK....

Town hall bin police are to be given powers to stop, search and seize vehicles whose drivers are suspected of fly-tipping.

Under laws to be introduced next year, bin wardens working for councils will be able to order drivers to stop and then search their cars for black bags of household refuse.

They will be entitled to impound a family car if they think it is being used to dump rubbish unlawfully.

This is the latest escalation of a campaign which has made it a crime to leave out too many rubbish bags, put them out at the wrong time, or fill wheelie bins too full. Ministers announced the new stop-and- search powers for bin police as they released figures showing a massive jump in flytipping in England in the 12 months up to this spring.
