The charging for groceries bags and sugar tax is harmonic progression... sugar is not the best for us in a fructose kinda way and cloth groceries bags are environmental friendly, no paper (trees) plastics etc... So mother had spoken through man's agenda(politics )... I'm okay with this.In a grand scale of balancing the earth. This will benefit humanity. This is pieces of the shift is happening which is bigger than mankind.
