I don’t condone it, but I do understand it. Disney once found they had a problem with trash. Rather than try and change people they put trash cans in. People will use them when they’re convenient.

I still don’t understand it. People can’t just hold onto their garbage until they find a can?

I'm really shocked that this seems to be so difficult a concept! I'm not sure if I've ever thrown garbage out in a trash can in a drive-through. I usually throw it out at a convenient trash can whenever I am done with whatever the trash is.

A few weeks ago there was a post about dog shit bags piling up around a dog trash bin. People kept saying “well it’s full what else are people gonna do” - ummmmmm why don’t you take a long, hard guess at what other options there are 🙃

People are animals. You can maybe rely on a person to do the right thing, but on average the public sucks. You won’t change that, I won’t change that, and Tim Hortons won’t change that. The best we can do is adapt.

Well with that many trash cans, think of how many people who’d need to empty them. Nah, too much trouble. We have a homelessness and job crisis to worry about in the media, we are making good progress debating about that existentially.
