Where I live in Ontario there are no recycling services... I doubt that will change with this new tax.

There are absolutely no recycling services?
everything goes in the landfill?

Damn rights it does. We used to have "blue boxes", but the program was scrapped because it wasn't "cost effective" for our area.

The next thing they'll be telling us is they don't have a used tire recylcing fee.

good question...so do they?

This fee is such shit. I remember people not buying things where i worked when told about it(Alberta). Sounds stupid but people are already pissed at paying enough for shit let alone more taxes.
The fee also has not done one single thing as far as recycling programs go, had them loong before this tax. Just another cash grab
