Our wonderful Ontario Goverment, LCBO and Beer Store has brought up the prices of higher alcohol content beers by up to 60%.

I'm not sure of beer prices in other provinces. I do know it is much cheaper in Hull Quebec then it is here in Ottawa.

I would like to here from members from other provinces to read there views on this. I think the beer prices in Ontario are high enough as it is.

I don't know what the other provinces are like price wise anymore, but, I can pick up a 28 of Canadian for $16 in Seattle. ( I know its a very odd size) A 24 of Blue is running $15. Big Rock runs $18 a 24. Kokanee runs $15 a 24. That's US bucks. Its always good to know American prices when trying to apply leverage to politicians.

Well, don't forget to hand-deliver some if you ever make it back up here. A carton of Marlboros too. :)
