We are happy to see that pressure from the public, including Sierra Club Canada members who sent countless messages to the government, has resulted in this ban also being applied to the export of these products.

Here’s the plan 👇
✅ 2022: ban on the manufacture and import of these single use plastics
✅ 2023: ban on the sale
✅ 2025: ban on the export
Together these actions will eliminate more than 1.3 MILLION tonnes of plastic waste!

This is devastating local communities in the area! Their voices must be heard.

A global surplus of oil and demand for renewable energy is now driving #fossilfuel companies to seek out new sources of demand. Some see plastic as their best bet.

Did you all know that most shiny and sparkly wrapping paper isn't recyclable?
This year we'll be using alternatives like newspaper, butcher paper, old shopping bags, kids artwork and the pages of magazines and catalogues! What's your favourite alternative wrapping material?
