This kind of city by-law confuses me. If a store chooses to give their customers plastic bags to carry things after purchasing something, how is that an illegal act? They get a city ticket?
If someone spent enough money after being fined, they could win this fight. Plastic and bags are not illegal themselves. I am pro-environment, but politicians need to worry about more important things such as jobs, crime, education etc - not freaking shopping bags.
