Canada
• CDN Pop.: 33.5 million • 10 Provinces and 3 Territories• 10 million square kilometers• 23 M registered vehicles• .69 vehicles/person
• NZ Pop.: 4.1 Million• 2 Islands• .268 million sq. kms.• 3.4 M registered vehicles• .83 vehicles/person
ELT Issues and Challenges in Canada
• Huge Land mass and relatively small population makes it difficult to achieve economies of scale
• ELT management is not a Federal responsibility
• We have 10 Provincial authorities, each with their own political approach and needs, which can create very different ELT models and program and pricing strategies
• Grey market and ease which consumers can bring tires in from U.S.A or from other provinces

• TD: TDF uses;• Disposed: as a by-product of the recycling
process or the energy recovery process that is disposed of in landfill
• Managed: Recycling + TDF + Disposed
• Recycling % = recycling tonnes/collection tonnes;
• TDF% = TDF tonnes/collection tonnes• Disposed % = disposed tonnes / collection
tonnes• Managed % = (recycling tonnes + TDF

Eco fee based on the retail sale of a new tire ($3-5/tire)The eco fee is sent from the retailer to the ELT Board, which uses all the monies to:
Pay the tire hauler for the collection of retailer’s scrap tires once he delivers to processor (helps to eliminate illegal dumping) Pay the tire processor a fee to cover two things:
The processor’s ‘tip fee’ (help reduces illegal dumping)A processing incentive to produce higher value products
Public Education // Promotion of Recycled ProductsR&D Funding // Stockpile Abatement Track scrap tire collection from retailer to hauler to processor

Summary of ELT Programs in Canada
Each Canadian province has its own specific focus on markets for recycled tires, depending on provincial priorities.
All Canadian Tire Stewardship Programs collaborate on tire stewardship issues through a voluntary organization called CATRA (Canadian Association of Tire Recycling Agencies). Examples of shared initiatives include:
• Recycling data / cost sharing• Tire definition harmonization• Financial and recycling KPI (key Performance Indicator) development• Policy and Communication messaging
Common program challenges include:
• Ensuring revenue completeness (i.e. that all responsible parties are remitting the appropriate fees)• Grey market imports
• Used tire import / export impacts• Managing political expectations and concerns• Developing sustainable markets
• Specific focus on OTR tire processing/market options
