What do you think of the proposed new plan for waste packaging?

The Manitoba government is considering a new plan to enhance our province’s successful Blue Box recycling program.

The plan was developed by Multi-Material Stewardship Manitoba (MMSM), the industry association that will be responsible for managing the program.

Highlights of the proposed plan

  • Strengthened recycling programs throughout the province
  • Increased beverage container recycling
  • Expanded plastic bag recycling
  • Support for schools, post-secondary education institutions, public space, and public event recycling

You’re invited to review the new plan and provide your comments.  Printed copies of the plan are available at Manitoba Conservation’s public registries located at libraries throughout the province or by clicking on the link below:
