"Plastic industry objects to bag ban"
Association worries LCBO bag ban is 'too much too soon'

so let's get this straight... you are upset because "the man" in squeezing out your company because it is bad for the environment which you, your family, your employees, your customers, etc. all live in? you want to keep making these harmful/wasteful products so you can have money even thought it's bad for where you're living? ok, i was just making sure.

also... 80 million bags used annually in ontario liquor stores?!? that's a LOT of liquor... but i guess a lot of people have problems and everyone loves drunken sluts so i guess there's quite the market out there for it...

one downside of getting rid of plastic bags will be the increased use of paper bags which aren't necessarily better for the environment. let's get rid of both! the LCBO has introduced their own reusable bag and i gotta get me one of those! you know, to go with the collection of other reusable bags i have in my trunk that i always forget about...

but what happened to the LCBO's bottle deposit and recycling program? where they were giving you blue plastic bags with the recycing symbol on them to bring your empties back to the store with? how's that going to work?

whatever... my main point was that the plastic industry are a bunch of whiny babies.
