Comments – This year we were on track to not lose much compared to 2024 until the evacuation. July's tonnage was quite high at 47 tonnes, but it consistently dropped after that.
It appears that removing the trailer by Canadian Tire has resulted in recycling piling up in people's homes, as large amounts were dropped off the last two weeks of December and into January. Most of this was not processed in December because of the holidays, so it is missing from the weights.
Lower tonnage may also be a reflection of the fact that many people are living in camps for work half the time.
