Bags of garbage

The photos of bags of garbage on this blog do not magically appear. I fill the garbage bag up in 15 min. to an hour and take the bag to be picked up by the city. Most garbage comes from little bits everywhere that add up to one large bag when collected into a group. Photos height and width (March 26, 2024) now match original.

Cleaned at Shakespeare park. Kind of dangerous because it is not an official park. The land could be sold and developed (houses built) at any time. I went to clean the woods, but had problems. The garbage cans are not yet present so I could only work for and hour ( a good thing in hindsight) filling the two bags I brought with me.
As I arrived I found there was broken glass in the sandpit where the children play, so I started cleaning there.
I picked up what I glass could visible see, a proper job would use a rake and a screen of some kind to get the smaller particles.
What kind of a person put broken glass into a play area for children?  I guess the same kind that puts razor blades in candy at Halloween. In Sherbrooke Quebec someone put needles in jeans.

In this area dog owners pick up their dog poop in a bag, then drop the bag . I picked up many of these abandoned dog poop filled bags. What is up with that?

total piles
In the woods of Cap St Jacques I moved the junk I found to the trail. I hope the person with a tractor will pick it up, if not the junk is now next to a trail so can be dragged to the street. The distance to the street is relatively far. The metal cylindrical canisters have "Montreal" stamped on them.
UPDATE The junk was picked up!

Cheval Blanc Whitehorse rapids park , I cleaned visible garbage in the small woods just east of the official park. Two and a half small bags of garbage. The apartment building there has a trash containers that spills out garbage into the woods, by accident and by the wind, and by fools.
 If I was someone with power, I would force this apartment building to build a small fence on the property line to prevent trash from the trash bin from flowing into the woods.
