      Bamboo straws I like as well.

      Like… I get that paper straws kind of suck. But my god. We’re a week away from the election and this is what he’s talking about. These people are so childish. It feels like he’s running for class president instead of PM.

      Never even heard of hemp straws. And I’m near Vancouver, hippy Canada to older Eastern Canadians
