If you watched the news last night, CBC, they showed that desirable, lustrous, much sought after area, jellybean square, it made Syria look wonderful.
Naturally, the residents are work shy and obviously too stressed to clean up their midden.
In my building I have watched WM come, remove garbage and have some fall out. They stayed in their truck and left it, even placing the bin on the garbage.

It’s everybody’s responsibility to not litter but what chaps my hide more than anything else is the young mf’s throwing out their McDicks and other assorted garbage into my ditch for me to have to pick up. At least they could leave a few fries in bag so I can feed my caw caws.
Bus drivers are partly to blame. The turbulence blows the garbage from the gutter into our yards. I have yet to see a driver stop to pick up the mess.
