Do they have a non-refundable enviro fee in Manitoba on bottles/cans?

I think in BC we pay 10 cents per bottle for deposit and then 5 cents per bottle for a non-refundable enviro fee. We can get the 10 cents back when we take em to the depot, but a lot of people just throw em in the trash so you see a lot of seniors going through the trash for cans in malls.

I think Alberta is the same, I never really pay attention I am just used to it.

In Oregon, you can recycle bottles at machines and they can tell if the bottle is from another state such as Washington that doesn't have a deposit/refund on bottles.
