The mobius loop symbol does NOT mean that the material is recyclable in the City of Toronto's Recycling Program.

To make recycling as easy as possible, the City does not refer to plastics by their resin type.
In your collection calendar, on City promotional materials, and in the
Waste Wizard, the types of items that can and cannot be recycled are listed.
Visit City of Toronto’s
website for a list of items accepted in the Recycling program.
