@anne_theriault They never closed the schools when I was growing up in Toronto and I remember someone telling me that’s because once they did and a kid showed up anyway and froze to death. This is my recollection as a 10yo and I never fact-checked it, though!
@OttawaMorning In response to @CliveDoucet’s comment: any rotting garage should probably be in your green bin, which does have weekly pick-up. My garbage is almost entirely plastic or styrofoam I can’t recycle.
