ProductCare, the recycling organization in charge of processing environmental handling fees (EHFs) on household waste products in several Canadian provinces, issued a notice recently that there will be a temporary pause on collecting EHFs in the provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Members are required to continue reporting, but as a $0 fee. See notice here.
