[unassuming]

Hopefully the Privacy Commissioner of Ontario or some other suit will put a quick end to this.

It's the only logical outcome. The post came in while I was typing mine. Apparently the LCBO does not have a legal department, or they were not consulted or worst case they are incompetent.

My first ticket in life came when I got busted for purchasing and possession of alcohol under THE AGE OF 21. LOL, drove around to 3 beer stores before I got away with it. Walking out of the Beer Store at Markham and Lawence, walking across the parking lot, waving the 24 in the air for my buddies in the car to see, when " Hey you!! come here... BUSTED!!! Who remember 21 to buy Alcohol in Ontario..

Sounds like some people started to bitch about targeting a certain group of people.
Typical government caving to cry babies.

i wonder if they will create a better system of lining up for payments.

Doing this in Thunder bay, Sioux lookout and Kenora just makes sense, If you’ve ever been to these towns you would know what I mean.

I haven't been there, but it's obvious, regardless.

Plans are canned already.

I'd be flattered it's been 40 years since they checked my id

Typical Doug Ford management style. Throw some shit at the wall and see if it sticks. Nothing thought through. It would be nice to have a viable alternative.

I think Whole Food ID all their customers.
