The removal of trash cans along the Lachine Canal is proving unpopular already.
I don’t know why Global recruited Alan DeSousa to make a bland negative Ensemble remark, right after they emphasized this was a Parks Canada decision and thus nothing to do with city hall. I don’t even know whether the city would have the right to replace the missing trash cans with ones of their own.

It does seem like kvetching for its own sake, you might as well be mad that the city doesn’t mow the lawn around Silo no. 5.

Wonder whether the powers that be at Global (owned by Alberta-based Corus) are not fans of lefties like Projet and Plante, in which case potshots could be mandatory regardless of their relevance.

If Parcs Canada maintains this “garbage awareness campaign” for the entire summer, it will be giving the city a good pretext to seize control of the park, finally.
It’s not like the canal is a major commercial shipping corridor anymore, so why is the Fed still there? To keep the signs bilingual?

As I understand it, it’s because of the locks.

If Corus want to take pot-shots at the left… might as well make it a Liberal/Trudeau issue.
