Government to ban single-use plastics as early as 2021: Source
The Trudeau government will ban single-use plastics as early as 2021, CBC News has learned from a government source.
Plastic straws, cotton swabs, drink stirrers, plates, cutlery and balloon sticks are just some of the single-use plastics that will be banned in Canada, according to the source.
This is part of a larger strategy to tackle the plastic pollution problem that the government is expected to announce Monday.
