PLASTICS Responds to Canadian Proposal to Declare Plastics Toxic

Tony Radoszewski, President and CEO of the U.S. based Plastics Industry Association (PLASTICS), has warned that false labeling could have devasting effects on cross-border trade, jobs in the U.S. and Canada, and working people depending on plastics for safety, convenience, and affordability. The warning follows the Canadian government’s continued push this spring to label plastic as a “toxic” material, recently publishing an order-in-council in the Canada Gazette Part II, that Radoszewski says opens the door for the creation of rules that will officially ban certain types of plastic products.
