Totally did not expect that.

Seriously, charging for paper bags now McDicks? Fuck off.
Was it in Vancouver? Cause I was at market crossing burnaby and they didn't charge for the bag. Or maybe they did and I didn't notice
It's a CoV thing.

Ban of single-use plastic bags, fee for disposable cups now in effect in Vancouver as of Jan. 1, 2022

One of those rules is that any and all businesses who operate in Vancouver are required to charge 15 cents per paper bag that they put their goods into before you take them out the door (or have them passed to you at a drive-thru window). You can, of course, choose to bring your own bag and not be charged a fee.

Another rule is that every single-use cup now comes with a 25 cent fee. Again, most places allow you to bring your own to-go mug for coffee, tea, etc.

For the average person who goes to McDonald's for a cheap and quick breakfast, lunch, or dinner, this means an extra 40 cents will be added to their bill.
