Nearly half of Montreal's 19 boroughs aren't recycling glass, despite telling residents on the city website they can put it in their blue bin or bag.
Landfill cover is spread over garbage at the end of each day to minimize odours, flyaways and prevent animals from getting into it.
Karel Ménard is the head of the organization Front commun québécois pour une gestion écologique des déchets. "I am surprised to learn that there are so many boroughs that have this bad practice of making us believe that we are recycling," Beaudoin said. "It's disconcerting."Ricova says it can't make the investment into better equipment since its contract with the city ends in 2024. The city isn't renewing that contract, and will be closing the Saint-Michel centre and replacing it with another one under construction in eastern Montreal.
"It's all very opaque," Ménard said, noting it's not clear whether 100 per cent of the glass Bellemare buys can be transformed. He questions why the company requires payment to take the glass.
