If you look at Canada, the jurisdiction for waste falls with the provinces and the federal government has powers under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act. An analogy would be the European Union, where the European Union gets together and sets these targets for the member states, which then implement those targets through their individual policies.
The European Union is leading right now on these issues. It's gone through the process of ratifying a directive amongst its members that has these targets in it. The member states will then look at their own socio-economic realities and implement nation-state level policies to meet those targets. That will be a dialogue with the plastics manufacturers, the producers of products that use plastics, etc., about what the right regulatory structure is to meet those targets, but those targets are EU-wide. I would suggest that the same kinds of targets and definitions in Canada established at the national level would make producers' lives much easier because they would be able to harmonize their efforts across Canada.
A notional coffee cup recycling target that's established nationally would then have to be met by Tim Hortons in Saint John, Victoria and Nunavut. That would require making that effort to do that.
