Editor:
This is an open letter to the individual who seems to repeatedly mistake North Road for the municipal dump:
I’ve picked up your discarded (thrown away, certainly – the bags are too heavy to have blown out of your vehicle) garbage several times now. If you don’t have a garbage can, please let us know – I’m sure we can crowdsource for one. Heck, I’ll even buy you one myself.
If you’ve forgotten that you’re the one, here are some clues:
• You have cats (plural, given the empty containers) who looove Whiskahs.
• You’re worried enough about your health that you drink 1% milk but …
• I don’t know why, given your smoking (Canadian Classics) and taste for beer (Molson’s).
• You deal with the smoking with Glade air freshener.
• You recently organized your Christmas baking (shortbread), buying it at SuperValu, whose bags you like to recycle as garbage receptacles.
• You like Wendy’s fries and burgers.
Could you please have some consideration for your neighbours and community and use our district garbage service like everyone else?
Doug Baker, Hopkins Landing
