I see a pretty strong correlation in that graph between population size and their multiplier.

Good year end approval numbers for the mayor.

Looks like the new year will be a lot like the last.

Well, if Ford ever shows up at council again.

oh ezra...

Mayor Tory to punish Torontonians' "bad behaviour" with smaller garbage bins -- but how big are the ones at his three luxury homes?

I’m going out on a limb here: John Tory doesn’t take out his own garbage.

Tory has a luxury condo in Toronto, a massive estate on Lake Simcoe, and an elite gated community home in Florida.

How many staff do you think he has at each home? How many garbage cans do you think he has? Do you think they’re as small as the ones he wants to assign to you?

Do you really think Tory composts at that gorgeous Florida gated community?

No, that's for the servants. And other people -- like you and me.

Smaller grey garbage bins, larger green food waste bins.

What about houses with multi-families?

The ex-mayor's family is the one with the Florida real estate...

Gated community in Florida doesn't equal staff. I stay in one regularly and take out my own trash. Gated communities are quite common

My dad almost moved us to a gated community in Florida once.

Ezra is jealous of most people.

The topic is about garbage (and improper disposal of green & recycling stuff) in Toronto, so what does Lake Simcoe or Florida have to do with disposal bins in Toronto?

Ezra's ego is hurt again. The Conservative party (both fed. and prov.) and Ethical Oil have let him down so he needs to spread FUD to make himself feel better.

I stay in one too. Though it contains staff that cover maintenance such as cutting grass, pruning trees, etc. garbage disposal is up to property owners.

What we really need in Toronto are more frequent pickups of garbage and recycling. Both should be done weekly. The reason there is so much excess litter in neighbourhoods in the last several years is because people's blue bins are packed beyond their capacity and the overflow finds its way onto roads, sidewalks, lawns, etc. If our bins were emptied more frequently, the trucks could dispose of garbage with greater ease with less spillover.

We also need more garbage bins, particularly in new residential areas. City Place, Fort York and Liberty Village all lack city-provided bins so people walking along the street just toss their garbage. It's always messy around Tim Horton's in City Place, for example.
