I don't see what is socialist about liquor regulations that were pushed by the religious conservative temperance movement in the 1920s and includes a privately owned beer monopoly.

I should have put it in quotation marks. Drake said "socialist liquor policies" in an above post (I think at least partly tongue-in-cheek) and I was referring to that.

I don't think we will see a big change to the way LCBO and Beer Store and alcohol in general run in this province for a while.
