Dan Tappin;
My dad has worked at the Ex in Regina for many years and ran Buffalo Days the year [Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming] shut down the aerobics demo because it was adjacent to the beer gardens.
It’s going to take many terms of Brad Wall government to turn this around…
“Saskatchewan has regulations prohibiting the sale of alcohol alongside strip shows.”
Bummer. It brings back fond memories of the Manor at Kingston
Having been on the receiving end of CROSS wives killing off a fundraiser here.
What goes around, comes around. Just ’cause the strippers happen to have dicks – doesn’t give the holier than thou female crowd the right to run rampant.
If men can’t do it, neither can you. Get over it.
‘touche!’ to the bear @ 2:45
Having women get all excited watching young, fit men gyrating on stage…might lead those women to go out and engage in lascivious behaviour.
Better lock up your sons and bar your doors and windows.
Of course women would not be so tempted if men were required to wear veils and the niqab and burka and only be allowed out of the home accompanied by a wife or adult female relative.
S.L.G.A. (Sharia Liquor and Gaming Agency)
Alberta got out of the liquor store business but they still have endless Gestapo enforcing a myriad of inane regulation. The aSSeS even set minimum liquor prices.
Yeah, last time I was in Saskatoon nearly 18 months ago we were having a particularly bad experience trying to install some equipment and I thought a visit to a peeler bar might be in order. I was basically laughed at – “we don’t have those here”. Yet a fundraiser, albeit for a great cause, can have the Chippendales? WUWT?
Prohibition under the guise of government regulation even in Alberta when we finally got rid the Liquor board albatross. Thing is most of the stores are now owned by political families. Who at the time knew this legislation was coming . It was a scandal at the time. They retained power of the Distribution & price but allowed only certain people (themselves) ownership.
Is Brad Wall going to…you know…do something in office?
Being a Diet Coke version of Lorne Calvert isn’t going to amount to much and the populist “good ole Brad” is going to wear off if it isn’t backed up by something.
It is not the business of government to make men virtuous or religious, or to preserve the fool from the consequences of his own folly. Government should be repressive no further than is necessary to secure liberty by protecting the equal rights of each from aggression on the part of others, and the moment governmental prohibitions extend beyond this line they are in danger of defeating the very ends they are intended to serve.
