69 containers full of garbage have returned to Canada
A Philippine court had ordered them returned after it emerged that the garbage had been mislabeled as recyclable plastics before it left Canada in 2013 and 2014.
In May, Malaysia demanded that the United States, Japan, France, Canada, Australia and Britain take back 3,000 tons of garbage.
The problem emerged after China stopped accepting waste last year, leading many other countries to redirected their rubbish.
