Ontario Mourns a Fallen Drinking Buddy

By Stephen Michalowicz

According to the Canadian Press, the Ontario Government and the LCBO secretly raised the minimum price of a case of twenty-four bottled beers last month, from $24 to $25.60. The price hike, which has already come into effect, was not an economic decision, but rather part of the LCBO’s 1993 decision to enforce social responsibility. Apparently, a 24 for $24 was just too much for us to handle.
