True. Hey, how long has it been since your city last experienced a garbage strike? Because I think everyone in Toronto remembers the 2009 one vividly enough that they think twice before taking sanitation workers for granted. Shit was nasty.
i think the last actual strike was maybe in 2005?
they did threaten one last year though, but i think the local council capitulated
the council is local government to be clear

i was talking about public perception though
