A Quebec toxic waste dump that takes in U.S. material wants to expand. Locals say no way

  • A toxic waste dump in Blainville, Quebec, operated by Stablex, seeks to expand due to limited space by 2027, impacting local ecology and communities as the Quebec government supports this through Bill 93.
  • Blainville Mayor Liza Poulin and environmental groups oppose the expansion, raising concerns over its ecological impact and the rights of municipalities.
  • The Bureau d'audiences publiques sur l'environnement has described the expansion project as 'premature,' urging the government not to authorize it.
  • If approved, Blainville plans to challenge the legality of Bill 93 in Quebec Superior Court, asserting concerns over toxic waste importation from the U.S.
