Title based on caption
Collected by editorial for use in a March 2002 issue of the Burnaby NewsLeader
Caption from metadata: "Environment Minister David Anderson crushes an old car to promote British Columbia's Scrap-It program, which allows owners of polluting old cars to turn in their beaters for credit towards the purchase of a new car, bicycle or transit pass. The Minister says by getting the old cars off the roads, it's better for the environment. The demonstration was held at the AirCare testing centre on Wayburne, in Burnaby."
