Especially considering as some of the health effects are only starting to become apparent. See https://www.uri.edu/news/2023/08/microplastics-infiltrate-all-systems-of-body-cause-behavioral-changes/
UBC scientists create device that uses wood dust to trap up to 99.9 per cent of microplastics in water.
Instead of halting immigration, we should regulate the investors and developers driving and profiting from sky-high housing prices

Smith has already announced plans to challenge the Canadian Constitution, disregard the courts that interpret it and wage a broader war on the health-care system that would even make Jason Kenney blush.
