The Editor,
I recently spent my morning picking up litter tossed with apparent abandon in the greenbelt off Heffley Crescent in Coquitlam’s Town Centre. (It is not the only street where people seemingly show little concern or respect for our beautiful cities).
Ours is not a Third World country or even a developing country, so it’s appalling so little respect is paid to maintain and appreciate the aesthetic beauty that is inherently ours.
Dog owners who thought they were being responsible by picking up waste tossed dozens of poo bags here, along with candy wrappers, cups, bottles, etc.
Surely we can do better than this.
