When plastic is outlawed, only outlaws will have plastic.

Government has clearly stepped into the zone of “working” against us——they hate for us “peons” to have conveniences and joys in life.

Another example of why Canada is the world’s worst underachieving nation. With all they have they are a tenth of what they should be. Instead they have embraced every bad idea we and Great Britain ever had and made it much them worse. To think how close we came to having it part of the US, just imagine.

Does this ban include medical equipment? The autoclave makers must be rejoicing

Yeah, good luck with that.

Easy to say you are banning them.
The devil is in the details of what replaces them.

Canada is in very good shape indeed when this is what the government chooses to obsess about.

I can just see crossing the border once that takes effect.

Any alcohol? Cigarettes? Bear spray? Weapons, including switchblade-type knives? Plastic straws, cotton swabs, drink stirrers, plates, cutlery, balloon sticks or any other one-use plastic items? Please pull over to the secondary inspection area.

We found a plastic straw. You cannot enter Canada and need to return to the US.

And will they include plastic soft drink bottles of all sizes, plastic milk jugs, plastic containers of condiments that are sold in grocery stores?

And prescription bottles, breath mints, EVERY product sold in stores in a plastic wrapper.

Please God, take all the liberals from us.

As a Canadian I concur which is why I am skeptical of the new employment numbers that show they are the lowest in 27 years. As a Canadian, I feel like a pauper when you compare our Standard of Living to what it is in the US.

Only 4 years, the pain makes it feel like a life time.

What about the packs that pharmacies make for the elderly, that help them monitor what pills to take each day?
