The govt’s decision to designate all plastic manufactured items as toxic is absurd

Madam Speaker, the government’s decision to designate all plastic manufactured items as toxic is absurd. It is inconsistent with the government’s own science assessment, and it threatens thousands of jobs. Can the minister, with a straight face, tell the more than 100 employees at Pro-Western Plastics in St. Albert that the health and food plastic products that they manufacture are akin to lead, mercury and asbestos?
