Every day, close to 20 semi-loads of sludge from Winnipeg’s water and waste department are trucked out to be spread on farmers’ fields northwest of the city. The city’s been disposing of “bio-solids” this way since the 1930s – but now it’s looking at alternatives.

Wow, I cannot believe this…..I just watched the documentary “Crapshoot” which depicts this harmful process of getting rid of the sludge that comes with having a water/sewage treatment plant. Does “Peak of the Market” grow their “wholesome, home-grown” food on these farms? I certainly hope not. Unbelievable, in Alberta they mix their garbage with their sludge and used to sell it as “nutriplus” fertilizer, listing the nutrients on the back but not the heavy metals etc. and they still sell it but not as “Nutriplus.”
