The National Assembly unanimously adopted a 'right to repair' law in principle last spring, but since then nothing has happened. Now Quebec's environmental watchdog says such legislation is crucial to reducing waste in landfills
MONTREAL Quebec is about to take a good long look at garbage. The province s Office of Public Hearings on the Environment is launching a commission of inquiry into long-term management of waste. The inquiry is being held at the request of Environment Minister Benoit Charette and will examine the current state of waste management and how it will develop over the next 20 years. Specifically, the inquiry will look into “ultimate waste,” or waste that remains after sorting, recovery and development. Commission president Joseph Zayed said that the volume of residual materials in landfills has decreased only slightly per inhabitant in recent years.
