Who does this Bylaw apply to? All food service, retail and service businesses in Regina are required to comply with the Bylaw. This includes, but is not limited to: Food vendors Retailers Second-hand stores Street vendors Vendors at festivals, special events, and markets How is this Bylaw enforced? A designated officer will follow-up and investigate any complaints. What is considered a plastic checkout bag? The Bylaw defines a plastic checkout bag as any plastic bag that is intended to be used by a customer for the purpose of transporting items purchased or received by the customer from a retail business, food service business or service business but does not include a reusable container. What is a reusable container? The Bylaw defines a reusable container as any receptacle or enclosure for holding a product for the purpose of transporting items purchased or received by the customer from a retail business, food service business or service business and includes, but is not limited to, a bag that is designed and manufactured for multiple uses and is primarily made of cloth or other washable fabric. Is this change expensive for residents? Customers may bring their own reusable bags to package groceries or other purchases for free. Many retail businesses and food service businesses are also offering and charging a fee for paper checkout bags, so a small investment in reusable bags will pay for itself over time. Why does the bylaw only include plastic checkout bags? What about other single-use plastic items? Since most people make in-store and grocery purchases, and reusable bags are easy to bring from home, this is a simple way to address one type of plastic consumption. Residents are still encouraged to reduce plastic in other areas of their everyday life such as switching to reusable water bottles, coffee and beverage cups, skip the straw, etc. What about the Federal Ban on Single-Use Plastics? The federal government has said single-use plastic items like plastic checkout bags, straws and cutlery will be covered by a national ban coming. The regulations to introduce the ban will be finalized by the end of 2022. Frequently Asked Questions Not Sure Where to Put an Item? Check out the Waste Wizard tool to find out how to properly dispose or donate common waste items. Regina residents are making a big difference when it comes to recycling. Together, we’ve redirected more than 85,000 tonnes of recyclable material from going to the landfill since 2013. Does the plastic stretch when you pull it? Can you can poke your thumb through it? If yes, then it’s not recyclable in the blue cart. Common examples include grocery bags, bread bags, produce bags, saran wrap, bubble wrap and overwrap on a pop case. Does the plastic bag or wrap make a crinkly sound or tear easily? If yes, these plastics are also not recyclable in your blue cart. Common examples include chip bags, frozen vegetable bags, pasta noodle bags and pet food bags. Try the Stretch Test! There are two simple tests you can do to determine which plastic does not belong in your blue cart recycling bin. Do the Crinkle Test! Recycle the Right Stuff

Cankerworm larvae are light green to brownish-green, often with a darker stripe down the back. They are sometimes called inch worms or loopers. Cankerworms spin ‘silken threads’ that allow them to drop from foliage to escape predators. The ‘silk thread’ also allows cankerworms to be blown by the wind to other trees. Cankerworms drop to the ground and burrow into the soil when fully grown. Moths of the fall cankerworm emerge from their cocoons in mid-September and October. ...
