Tierney declares war on abandoned shopping carts

[guest]

OTTAWA — Stray shopping carts are a public nuisance and the city should impound them till their owners come to bail them out, says Beacon Hill-Cyrville Councillor Tim Tierney. He’s put a motion on the agenda for the next meeting of city council’s transportation committee, calling for city crews to scoop up abandoned carts, usually trundled away from grocery stores and plazas by customers, and store them at city works yards. Their rightful owners could collect them for a fee — Tierney suggests $20.
