New Canadian Plastics Regulation Update
New Canadian Plastics Regulation Update Plan for the Ban: New Year, New Canadian Plastics Regulation Update - McMillan LLP Planning Ahead for Businesses
As evidenced by the legislative developments over the course of 2022, Canada has commenced the ban of certain single-use plastics and has it sights set on other plastic products for future regulation. There is also a trend across the country toward shifting the operational and financial responsibility of plastics recycling to producers. Existing, pending and future regulations will likely continue to expand over time, resulting in more prohibitions and restrictions on plastics products and packaging. Businesses would therefore be well advised to consider alternatives to single-use plastics manufactured, sold or used in their operations.
