If you've ever been jolted by the deafening roar of a leaf blower- or worried about the air your family breathes, you're not alone And your voice matters.
Two-stroke gas leaf blowers are extreme polluters, dumping up to 30% of their fuel unburned into the air as toxic exhaust. They fill our neighbourhoods with noise and pollution, often day after day.
Gasbusters is a growing movement of residents calling for an end to the noise and pollution caused by gas powered leaf blower
This summer, Gasbusters will also keep watch on City Council’s November 2025 motion directing city operations, businesses, and residents to refrain—wherever practical and feasible—from using 2-stroke gas-powered leaf blowers when wildfire smoke pushes the Air Quality Health Index into the high or very high risk range.
Join us and help clear the air in our communities.
We’re Taking a Stand Because
The noxious fumes blasted out aren’t just irritating — they are a real, preventable danger to our health.
Over two hundred cities in the USA and Canada have banned or severely restricted their use.
The forceful blast of air can be lethal to small animals and insects.
The loud noise exceeds the safe noise limits for human hearing and can lead to hearing loss.
