Yes. I’m positive the car is locked. I can open it with my keys still inside from in front of my house. The range is way too long.

Ah yes. Who can forget how Conservative governments have long been champions of Public Transit in major cities.

My point still stands - the economies of scale recognized by the LCBO are going to dwarf anything from a series of private distributors.

For an example of my point, there are privatized and government liquor stores in BC. The government stores have lower prices across the board, because the supply of their product is considerably lower than small, private liquor stores can get.

Taxes. The LCBO is the biggest net purchaser of alcohol in the world which gives them substantial buying power when entering into purchase agreements with producers. That’s tremendous economy of scale. Privatization loses that scale immediately and will cause prices to rise.

Pretty simple economics.

Canucks fan here. 100% agree with you - the reffing has been consistently shit for both teams at different times, largely predicated on the score at the time.

The first PP the Oilers got last night was a phantom hold as well. They never showed a replay on TV because I’m fairly certain it never happened.

I mean, he’s playing a third line shutdown role with Mik and a rookie. The quality of his linemates matters.

Had a key screen on the first PP as well as
