In what country you can get permits without a bathroom????
At first I though "surely this is about the US", but no, even in the US at least some states require public bathrooms in all coffee shops, cafe, restaurants etc. Some states have exceptions depending on the size of the establishment and some states do not have this regulation at all.
I also just checked Dutch and some other countries' laws. Public bathrooms are required for new establishments with no exceptions. I have not found a EU-wide regulation though.
Vancouver, B.C. Canada Checking in, bathrooms are only required if you have indoor seating, so a lot of places didnt reinstall their tables post pandemic, and thus kept their washrooms closed
This is false and is in direct violation of the Public Toilet Act.
Violation or not, any store you dont see people sitting down in, the washrooms are closed. The fact that so many stores are doing that instead of just not letting people use the washroom leads me to believe there is in fact a loophole. I live and until recently worked downtown, this loophole was explained to me while I was an employee at a grocery store that didnt have public washrooms, and if you pay attention to the restaurants that havent returned seating back, they no longer provide access to what used to be public washrooms

I looked up the act before I responded. I'm now convinced you live nowhere near downtown Van, and cant conceive of something like local by-laws

Yes I am indeed dutch but even here in Ecuador (14y now) I have not heard of a bar without a piss spot at the very least
They have bathrooms, but they're employee only.
Dude seriously you can't piss at places? Dude
I just piss on the floor until they get the message to open up the bathroom to the public. 🤷🏻♂️
I can either deny nor confirm that I have done that at a trainstation in Culemborg
Land of the free. Yeah I know downvote me for replies thrice
Say that three times
Insane. Greetings from the rest of the world **
America allows private bathrooms.
Allows ≠ obligates ...
