BREAKING: Ontario pop and juice recycling fee program halted as province looks into deposit-return system
The initiative, called “Recycle Everywhere,” was being launched by the Canadian Beverage Container Recycling Association and was set to begin at the end of July after multiple delays.
Earlier this year a spokesperson for the Ministry of the Environment said that expenses associated with recycling costs taxpayers millions of dollars every year. “Last year they spent over $168M to cover costs that the large corporations who produce this waste should ultimately be paying,” Gary Wheeler said in February.
However, the plan received criticism as producers had the option to offload the fees to retailers, who in turn would raise prices for consumers.
