I'm just reflecting on some of the quite disturbing testimony we heard from one of the scientists. It was about the fact there are plastics in our drinking water and in our waste water.
As a former mayor, I'm always interested in municipal infrastructure and the cost of improving standards in any way. Municipalities never have enough money to deal with the new regulations that the federal or provincial governments sometimes send their way. I don't know whether we'll get there on plastics. I'm assuming that it would probably be the health people that ultimately might set some of those standards.
This is just a heads-up. If we start talking about getting plastics out of our drinking water and plastics out of our waste water, there's likely a very large cost that could not be borne by municipalities in meeting those standards going forward.
