Help Shape Saskatchewan's Waste Management Future
Official title: Renewal of Saskatchewan's Solid Waste Management Strategy
Saskatchewan is updating its five-year waste management strategy. The province wants to know what's working, what needs to change, and what new ideas could reduce waste. Your feedback will help set priorities for recycling, landfills, and waste reduction across the province.
Why This Matters
Ever wonder where your garbage goes? This strategy affects recycling programs, landfill rules, and what happens to hazardous waste in your community. If you've been frustrated by limited recycling options or worried about illegal dumping, this is your chance to speak up.
What Could Change
The renewed strategy could expand recycling programs to more communities, set new targets for waste diversion, or introduce rules for managing construction debris and hazardous materials. Priorities from the 2020 strategy may be updated based on what's been achieved.
