How many people will do that?
When you say Calgary has a "similar system", what does that mean?
This is from the cities website which only says you "can" use compostable bags but it's not a requirement.

Here’s a look at what residents can expect coming in 2023:
A 240-litre green cart will be used to collect the material - this is two-thirds the size of the blue carts that residents have today
All food scraps, including meat, bones, dairy and greases, yard waste and soiled paper (paper towel, cardboard and tissues) can go into the green cart which will divert roughly 50 per cent of the waste that is currently going into the garbage in Regina
Residents can use compostable bags
Green carts will be collected weekly between April and October and biweekly between November and March; garbage will be collected biweekly year-round
