Another Trump policy being used by Poilievre, Canada if you don’t see what he is doing, you are sleep walking - vote for our country, this guy would destroy us #NeverConservative #WeWontGoBack #ClimateChange #Renewables

Poilievre promises to end ban on single-use plastic straws, other items Apr 18, 2025 | 8:16 AM MONTREAL β€” Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is promising to end the federal single-use plastic ban on items like straws and grocery bags if his party is elected. Poilievre campaigned in Montreal this morning, as he and other federal leaders returned to the campaign trail following the two national leaders’ debates Wednesday and Thursday. Liberal Leader Mark Carney is campaigning in Hamilton later today, while NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh is also holding an event in Quebec.

How can his team not know that this will be immediately identified as a Trump policy? They say they want to distance himself from that clown, yet every day they reinforce that they are joined at the hip. It’s either nuts or it’s literally their strategy. οΏΌ

What's worse than a bigoted fascist dictator? A wannabe, copycat bigoted fascist. Little PP Poilievre can't even come up with his own shitty ideas to ruin the country, he has to copy them from elsewhere. The weasel is so unimaginative, even his empty slogans are secondhand. Fuck this guy. Vote LPC!

Straws are made from oil. All plastic is. Once you realize this, it's not hard to understand their willingness to pollute Mother Earth. It's all about Alberta oil.

apparently in the U.S. there were only a few states that actually banned plastic straws and even with the ban you could ask for plastic if they gave you a paper one

Enough with the plastic straws already! No let’s keep reducing our dependence on single use plastic, especially after the study released recently that shows our brains have the equivalent of a plastic spoon in micro plastic. The fish we consume has large quantities of micro plastic! Enough already!

It's the oil companies that the ban affects - oil by-products are used in making single-use plastics.

The goal of these simple bans is to reduce the amount of plastic in our landfill sites and harms done to our health, wildlife and the environment from plastic pollution. If no bans, what does he suggest we do then to curb those negative effects? Offer solutions dude, just don’t whine!

Solution 1) Make it so there is less than a year to eliminate All single use plastics. We shop for items, wrapped in it, or encased in it, like toys, & it's not recyclable. Industry needs to find a way to make that a profitable thing to do.
