I'm not sure I love this reasoning:
Dave Bryans, the chief executive officer of the Ontario Convenience Stores Association, has been pushing for beer sales for years, as a way to revive an industry still struggling with the decline of tobacco use.

Lmao. That reads like a Beaverton quote.
Kinda seems like a reason not to love it.
American coming from all… I visited Toronto a few years back and was surprised at the way alcohol was sold, but it seemed to work! We have our own weirdness in New York State where wine and spirits need to be sold in liquor stores but beer and malted beverages are OK for gas stations and grocery stores.
Wouldn’t be surprised if we end up with something very similar here tbqh
I lived in the US for years, so I have perspective from both sides of the border. Honestly, after an adjustment period, I don't see this being a problem. People would pop a paper bag over a tall boy and hop on the train with it. No one ever batted an eye.
Seems like a nice change tbh
