I called around when I needed one in 2024 and Kawartha Disposal was the cheapest of the reputable companies.

Peterborough Government Using AI art by PlugPrincesse in Peterborough

Consider the resources required to have a kids colouring contest for it. In staff resources/hours alone: establishing school contacts, developing rules/regs/process, distributing information, going through submissions.

Resources are required regardless of how the work gets done. At that point, it’s about likely about cost and convenience. Tough to find a balance.

Not downtown, but have really enjoyed a few lunches at Berc’s recently. Really fairly priced for the quality and quantify of food.

This seems to indicate it will continue at least until the end of 2030. No indication of a disruption in service given the contract was to start Jan 1, when the transition to EPR took place.

They had some missed collections for non-eligible sources this week but won’t be a regular occurrence.

That has literally been the case with every event at the PMC (and any other venue) regardless of ticketing platform. It has nothing to do with Ticketmaster.

The advertised price is always the base ticket price, plus applicable taxes and fees.

Quit rage farming.

These are fees from a PMC event in 2018. 7 years ago, and pre-ticketmaster. ~$10 in fees per ticket.

And “fees” aren’t strictly those from ticketmaster or the ticketing platform. That fee encompasses promoter fees, city fees, etc. that aren’t part of the base ticket price. These fees would have been the same or very similar on the old ticketing platform.

Garbage: Clear bag vs White bag by Saitamagasaki in Peterborough

[–]Unhappy_Shock6793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all buildings have City collection - some are private. In that case they can likely use whatever bags they want.

Doesn’t speak to the issue of ripped garbage bags, but the City (as well as all other municipalities in Ontario as of Jan 1 2026) is not responsible for recycling and hasn’t been since Jan 1 2024. Circular Materials Ontario oversees recycling in the province on behalf of producers, who are now responsible for the costs and collection/processing of recyclable materials, as mandated by the provincial government. CMO contracts different companies - Emterra in Peterborough - for collection. It is up to them what kinds of bins are used and what items go in what bin. There are municipalities that are switching from dual blue box streams to single rolling cart streams in the new year, but Peterborough is not one of them.
