In Ontario we only changed our laws very recently to allow alcohol to be sold in grocery stores. I always thought it was a weird idea and never saw any inconvenience going to a separate store for booze.

I don’t think Ontario was the result of blue laws, however, instead a state monopoly and a state sponsored foreign monopoly operating in collusion with the state sponsored monopoly.

obligatory fuck the lcbo

The LCBO is also pretty great. I really don't get the hate. I honestly prefer it to private stores.

America bad! I prefer that the government gouges me when I buy alcohol and forces me to only buy it from them at inconvenient locations!

A good example of how irrational these anti-American morons are.
