Ontario Might Get Eco-Fees for Electronics
The government of Ontario is looking at implementing a recycling fee for electronic goods. Televisions, computers and other electronic gadgets may soon see an increase in price to off-set the cost of recycling them.
While Environment Minister Laurel Broten wants the fees to be covered by the companies that produce the goods, Gemma Zecchini, a spokesperson for Waste Diversion Ontario feels certain that if this bill passes, consumers should expect to be shelling more out of their pockets.
British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Alberta already pay an electronic eco-fee.
