Q-2, r. 41 - Regulation respecting the recovery and reclamation of discarded paint containers and paints

Section 3 Disposition versions

2012-09-01

3. Every business that markets paints under a trademark which it owns or uses is required, through a recovery system that includes the minimum specifications described in the Schedule, to recover or to see to the recovery of the paint containers that are returned to the collection points provided for by that system and that are of the same type it markets. That business is also required to recover or to see to the recovery of any paint found in the containers insofar as that paint is of the same type it markets.

Where a business referred to in the first paragraph does not have a domicile or an establishment in Québec, the recovery obligation prescribed by that paragraph shall be the responsibility of the leading supplier of those paints in Québec, whether or not it is the importer.
