Can you please consider using an alternate format like Geordi in the future to make that future a better place
My thanks for your and everyone’s consideration.
Edit: fixedlink. an excellent lemming pointed out i hadnt copied the article i thought i had. Should have been about wrong Pedo named Drake. Apparently theres more than one.
Ahh fack. Thanks. I meant to change the article i copied but didnt copy the correct one. Thanks for being my editor, even if it wasnt your goal!
Much love. Ill go fix it with the correct article about Drake from degrassi and who is also the rapper, and the pedo shit he was caught doing that we know about
Thanks! I had read the rapper drake articles so I thought I knew what you meant. Now I’ve learned about this other drake and like, wtf, are there no good drakes?
Minimum pricing in AB, AFAIK, is regulated on the wholesale price of the product. So, producers are regulated, but retail stores aren’t prevented from competition, loss leaders, stunts, etc., which is what this might be.
Given that the tax money from alcohol/tobacco just goes into provincial and federal slush funds that proportionately end up being funneled into seniors benefits, I don’t believe minimum pricing really addresses the things that people think it does. I’m an advocate of directing alcohol taxes towards the harms it creates. But, try to find a politician who wants to grind that axe. I say this as someone who enjoys a good beverage, & acknowledging the pragmatic importance of offsetting the healthcare costs of alcohol abuse. I don’t believe that simply making a good more expensive is the wisest move on the policy side, if healthcare outcomes are the ultimate target.
AB government advocacy for local craft producers: Drake no
AB government advocacy for gambling and cannabis: Drake yes
The liquor regulation system in Alberta is prohibitionary already. What changes would you want to see?
Drake is a Pedo.

Aren’t those different Drakes? The article you linked is for some white guy, not the rapper.

Too many horny musicians named Drake.

Right? We never had problems when they were just something from dnd!
Most provinces have a minimum price for booze, that would be a good start
Alberta does have minimum prices for both wholesale as well as on-premise liquor.
Based on this image, I just assumed that they didn’t.
That jug is 160 units for $50. $0.31 per unit is a little low.
