Canadian Garbage Update

Michigan U.S. Sen. Debbie Stabenow has launched an online petition drive in an effort to stop Canadian waste from being brought across the border to Michigan.
 
 On Friday it was reported that Toronto soon may be shipping its human waste to Michigan in addition to other garbage. 
The proposal would let Toronto send Wayne County up to 55,000 tons of sewage sludge a year, on top of about 1.1 million tons of household trash. Please go to the following web site and sign the online petition to keep Canadian garbage out of Michigan.
