Tempest In A....Beer Bottle?
The Government Of Ontario has just introduced "Buck-A-Beer". Brewers can now sell beer for $1.
Okay.....
But if you listen to the pundits in downtown Toronto, you would think the world has stopped spinning on its axis and we will all be flung into oblivion!
It has been called "reckless", "dangerous", ill-advised" among many, many other adjectives. This will increase drunken driving accidents. Students and the poor will be adversely affected. What about the children?
Brewers call it foolhardy and a "race the to the bottom".
So what did Doug Ford do?
Did he slash the minimum amount for which a beer can be sold from $5 to $1?
Or from $3 to $1.
Or maybe cut cut the damn price in half!!
He cut it from $1.25 to $1,00.
A quarter.
Okay, everybody can go back to sleep.
And I might just head to the beer store.....
