Toronto city workers failed to reach a new contract agreement with the city of Toronto by this morning's deadline. So as of just after midnight last night, the garbage collectors are on strike.

You got that? A garbage strike started just after midnight last night. Less than 24 hours ago.

Today there are two parks in the downtown area where people are reporting that somebody has dumped bags of garbage.

What the fuck is WRONG with people?

Our binmen were on strike for over 2 weeks (the recycling was picked up since a different company collected that) earlier (end of May/2nd week of June).


But, they only refused to pick up on Mondays and Fridays (long weekends anyone?), so some sections of the city saw no difference whilst other sections (like where I live) had no pick-up due to our day was a Monday. I know it's a hard job, but still...


The other day, J and I drove by a grassy spot in front of a store where a bunch of adult chavs were lounging and drinking beer. One of them tossed the empty behind him as we drove by. I hate littering!
