A similar size container for recyclables will be a welcome addition over the present blue box system. If we want to contain expenses which in turn keeps our taxes in check, this is the first positive step to do so. How many administrations were unable to get to this point? Kudos to the Mayor and council for implementing this.
God we agree and it will have some bugs to work out but what doesn't

City actually grabbed a little bit of a brain here
http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews/realtors-unsold-on-zoning-plan-88079967.html

The onus for acquiring the zoning memo has been shifted to the home-seller from the buyer, with fines and penalties for non-compliance totalling at least $2,500. But since it's difficult to take legal action against someone who no longer owns a property, homebuyers will also be obliged to ensure the property has a memo.
Home-sellers whose building location certificates are more than a year old -- but not dated before March 2008 -- won't have to get new ones, provided they make sworn declarations they've made no changes to the properties.
People with older zoning memoranda will receive discounts on recertification, provided they, too, make sworn declarations.
Other changes to the bylaw include exemptions for properties being transferred to spouses or estates and a clarification that the bylaw applies only to single-family and two-family residences.

no no.. not scrapped... postponed until after the election. Every elected official knows very well that 4 years and people forget for some reason. December 2010 expect this to be back.

The idea is still good as it will force more people to get things done right , and to respect the code and bylaws.

yes, but with some seriously HUGE tweaks to the idea. As it was originally presented it was complete crap.
