Let's not let the failures of plastics distract from the reality that metals can be easily and affordably recycled (and have been since the days when every village had a blacksmith).
Paper and cardboard are also capable of being recycled in a reasonable manner using technology that has been around for over a century.
Same with glass (though shipping to a facility that does it often renders it cost prohibitive)
R/Canada is about as far from a "left leaning space" as there is.
/r/onguardforthee is much more centered and there is regularly more nuanced discussion about immigration and the TFW program without the banhammer swinging around.
Maybe predictable or somewhat reliable would be better choices of wording?
