The GFL landfill.

Physical odour mitigation now, a year-round voice at City Hall, and the work to close the landfill for good.

Report an odour event

  • Report to the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks pollution reporting line: 1-866-MOE-TIPS (1-866-663-8477). Every report is a record.
  • Note the date, time, wind direction and how strong the odour was.
  • Copy the Ward 9 office so we can track events and raise them with the Province and the operator.

Placeholder Confirm the current reporting channels and any City odour hotline before launch.
