The Canada–Philippines waste dispute was an international row over mislabeled Canadian garbage shipped to Manila by a recycling company. The 103 shipping containers that left from Vancouver in 2013–14 were labeled as recyclable plastics; they instead contained household waste. The intricacies of international treaties, the private company involved, and Canadian regulations complicated the situation through 2019 when Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, began threatening Canada with ultimata. On May 30, 2019, 69 containers of Canadian trash were shipped back.
