Community Cleanup Volunteer Finds Many Cigarette Butts

Letter to the Editor

Dear Editor,

I was one of many who cleaned up Meaford Saturday, and there is a comment I would like to make. The area I did had mostly cigarette butts. Paper and broken pots are part of life, but there is no reason for cigarette butts littering the sidewalks. My husband has smoked for the 55 years we have been together and he never throws away his butts. He just pinches off the ember and puts the butt into his pocket to be dumped at home. It is time to develop some self-respect and do the same—or get off the couch and go out and clean it up yourself.

Sincerely,

Roberta Docherty, Meaford
