Any reason you're comparing to the UK and not the closer America? Always funny seeing how casually people can go into something like a convenience store and pickup some booze. Makes us seem so weirdly restrictive.
Because I am in the UK
Ah I see, you're just commenting on an Ontario, Canada based post on a Canadian Lemmy instance is why I was curious :P
The glory of federation. Browse all, finding interesting niches
It varies wildly in the US. In some states Alcohol can only be bought in state run stores, in some it can be bought practically anywhere.
Why not get closer and look at Quebec where you can buy boose at any convinience store and gaz station and no one care.
