Its good. YOU KNOW WHY ? Because NOW, people will buy more fresh fruit and vegetables, just for those clear plastic bags. And then maybe theyll eat less labratory made chemical crap.

Larry & Brig have similar opinions on this one.

Hey look! A flying pig!

Yes I certainly agree with the decision, not to sure why they also banned the bio degradable models but overall a good decision. Hopefully it will set the tone for other cities and communities to follow suit and rid us of plastic bags in the streets, fields, lakes and rivers.

The ban is absolutely the work of worthless beings... Doesn't make sense, they are pushing their ideals in a World which will hopefully lead to their demise...

Honestly... This is the dumbest thing anyone could do.

You often hear about people name-calling, and making fun of Rob Ford... I think these councilors that supported the ban will go down in history as garbage.

Yes absolutely if you truly believe they are harmful then they should be banned and not used as an excuse to gouge an extra tax to the citizens.

This should be the status of all Cities across Canada.

Typical Sun. Of course plastic bags are not being banned as the Sun people want you to think. There will always be plastic bags for things such as bread and whatever. Its the plastic carry out plastic bags in grocery stores being banned. And of course they should be banned. There is no need to be using them just to be packing your groceries home..

But right wingers support littering and destroying the environment even more, so of course they are furious with the banning of plastic bags to bring your groceries home in.
