The federal government is calling for input from grocers, food and beverage producers, provincial governments and the general population.

That was a lie. I worked in groceries back in the 90s and the store owner said that the paper sacks cost him 5 cents and the plastic bags were less than 1 cent each… So stop handing out paper unless people ask for it!
I did not know that. I was a kid in the 1970s/80s when the change came to the part of Canada I grew up in… and I remember it as a “too many trees chopped down” thing. Did some digging and… damn…
Yeah, greenwashing is a huge thing. Most everything corporations do for “the environment” is bullshit used to place the problems on the individual consumers and not the actual perpetrators. Companies only care about that money.
