I don't think anybody's claiming that canvas bags are the answer. As you said, they contain a lot of plastic. The comment you replied to was about cotton bags, not canvas.

Oh. I thought they were the same thing.

I had one that looked pretty much like this: https://m.indiamart.com/proddetail/tesco-shopping-bag-368709...

Is it canvas or cotton?

Hard to tell what it's made of from the tiny image, but the cotton bags I know are 100% cotton (except for the print), like this: https://www.sinplastico.com/3742-large_default/organic-cotto... while canvas bags are usually made from cotton + PVC.
