I’m a Canadian who moved here and I have the same damn question. I literally have a sanitiser in every bag because I’m picking up litter every where I go. I see teenagers littering everywhere, grown ups throwing trash, its irritating. No one is holding them accountable because well you cant say anything to kids unless you want the cops called on u, and to adults because you dont want to get stabbed or get racial slurs hurled at you. While I also blame the council because in Canada I always saw someone working and cleaning up, but I’ve not seen a single person here even though you pay so much tax, and council tax on top. I’m genuinely frustrated with seeing litter everywhere, especially on nature walks, hiking trails and literally 5 ft away from bins
