Environment Minister will give us an update
Jeff Yurek will speak at 12:15 about his government's final plans to improve recycling.
About two years ago, the Ford government announced it was revamping the blue box program and would make producers take on the full financial and operational responsibility for where the packaging they sell ends up.
According to reports, negotiations with producers hit a snag after the province said it wanted to expand the materials allowed in recycling bins.
Critics also say if producers pick up the entire cost of recycling they will simply pass the price onto consumers.
