So I had a bit of trouble figuring out what to write about this week, so I thought i’d show you a picture I found by Flickr user nixie highlighting the recent pain us Torontonians have been having. As of the past week, many of Toronto city workers, including their garbagemen have been on strike leaving the city full of garbage and a little bit stinkier than usual. Although I understand that the city is trying to cut down on garbage during the strike, covering the public garbage cans with saran wrap and informing people they can’t use the garbage is just plain stupid. First of all, it inspires people to litter. Secondly, it is very easy to remove and start using the garbage cans again. Well, both things have happened. There is far more litter on the street and the garbage cans are still being used as if there were never out of service signs in the first place. Hoping this strike ends soon…
