This is another example of how the government has missed the mark again and again on taking a course of action without expecting a certain set of results and other things happening. It is not anticipating or taking into account the consequences, like food waste and the increased cost of food and cost of living for Canadians, without addressing the root cause of the problem. It's not that the plastics exist; it's where they end up. We have to do the right work, ensuring we protect our environment and get the societal benefits of having plastics in place.
Despite the bans, you noted that Canada faces many of the same collection recovery challenges. Is there any movement from the federal government on addressing recovery and recycling?
