LCBO weighs bottle-return system

The Ontario government is contemplating a deposit-return system for the Liquor Control Board of Ontario as a means of boosting the province’s recycling efforts.
Earlier this week, Environment Commissioner Gord Miller proposed a deposit system comparable to the province’s beer stores. He said that one-third of bottles and half of all plastic containers and aluminum cans sold at the province’s liquor stores are not recycled properly and are sent to landfills.
