Lowering the minimum price of beer cost the PCs nothing. Why even have a minimum price? Why didn’t the PCs remove the regulation entirely?

Lakeport introduced buck-a-beer in the early ‘90’s to gain market share dominated by Molsons and Labatts. Around the same time the big 2 were pushing high alcohol “ice” beers. MADD din’t like any of this, so they got the Liberals to legislate a minimum price for beer of $1.25.
