MANILA, Philippines — Malacañang has cautioned Canada to take back their garbage pronto or the Philippines would “sever relations with them.”
Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo issued this stern warning after Canada missed President Rodrigo Duterte’s May 15-deadline for it to retake the tons of garbage it shipped to the Philippines six years ago.
On Thursday, Foreign Affairs Secretary Teodoro Locsin Jr. said the Philippines has recalled its ambassador and consuls to Canada over the garbage row.
