This isn't a Canadian specific thing. Its common in most of the world.
But the problem isnt milk, its animal milk. Soy and oat milk should be fine.

I've always wondered about the bagged milk... Don't they get broken a lot? I'm genuinely curious
It happens, but not very often. I used to work dairy in a grocery store, so you’d see it, fairly often, but usually we the workers would catch it (because the bag would be leaking).
I’ve never seen a bag pop, or puncture outside of that.
They’re super tough. Never seen one break.

Tastes better 🤣🤣🤣🤣 those micro plastics sure kick up the flavor a few notches!!
Nearly ever milk receptacle except for glass will be sealed with plastic. Microplastics are not a bagged milk specific problem.

Bagged milk was available in MB in the late 80s/early 90s, but it disappeared some time after that.

bagged milk is a pretty wild concept to me, but obviously there are a lot of facets of american life that are fucking bonkers to everyone else (and lots of us) so I cant really speak to it
Instead of buying 4L (they are in 3 bags) of milk for $7, you will need to buy 2x 2L tetrapak at $5 each.
It's just for money that they are ending bags.
