Paper straw woes & Brad Wall joins the show

Paper straws are here to stay, following the government's decision that allows Ottawa's plastics ban to stand. David Clement, North American Affairs Manager with the Consumer Choice Center, has been critical of the ban and says "the war on plastic" has gotten out of hand.

Joining us now to share his perspective is former Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall.
