I understand your opinion. However, I like the idea of pay-for-what-you-use. I don’t live in Canada, but basically i only use my trash service once every 2-3 months. I end up picking up trash from my neighbors’ cans every trash day. So, in a very real way i am subsidizing their bad consumption habits. The managerial State does not reward efficiency. The trash company has a monopoly on trash services, and the State gets their administrative cut. There is no incentive to optimize for the “customer” because it would mean less value extraction for the State/Corporate blob.
