Ontario plans to spend hundreds of millions of dollars boosting the province’s alcohol sector, including programs to support grape farmers, wineries, distilleries and craft breweries.

    So the provincial priorities are to make it harder to ride a bike but easier to consume alcohol and drive. I am clearly not their target demographic.

    I hate that our government is spending money to promote human misery instead of funding addiction treatment and recovery.

        Ah, I didn’t realize that. Like how we export asbestos but outlaw its use here. Human misery is human misery!

              I can abuse food as well, should we ban sugar and low quality food?

    You ever wonder how the British could have been so comically evil as to go to war with China to force them to except opium imports? You ever feel that surely no country could be so comically villainous today? Well, you can drop such illusions. Nothing has changed at all.

    Can’t notice how poor of a job Doug is doing as premier if you’re already 6 beers deep while driving in gridlock on the 401. In that state you’re happy to blame the cyclists for congestion on a highway.
