In October 2020, Environment and Climate Change Canada announced proposed next steps to achieve Governments goals of zero plastic waste by 2030.  The proposal included to ban or restrict the use of certain single-use plastics.

CHFA is actively participating in a Trade Association Working Group focused on sustainability.  We will remain engaged on upcoming opportunities for consultations and advocacy impacting our members, including:

  • ECCC intends to publish the proposed regulatory framework on recycled content and labelling for public comment by end of Spring 2023
  • ECCC is expected to release the proposal for the plastics registry by end of Spring 2023
  • ECCC intends to publish the proposed regulatory framework on recycled content and labelling for public comment by end of Spring 2023
