Would you like some Cheese with your Whine?

Okanagan-Coquihalla Conservative MP Dan Albas today will introduce a private member's bill in the House of Commons seeking a personal use exemption to the 1928 prohibition era law



making it illegal to transport alcohol between Canadian provinces. Bravo Mr. Albas for your initiative and 21st century leadership thinking.


It is most unfortunate that the entire law is not being repealed. It makes no sense for Christy Clark and Steven Harper to circle the globe beating the bushes for business when there are obviously business opportunities within Canada being ignored.
