RANDY HILLIER TO OPEN UP BEER AND WINE DISTRIBUTION
Randy Hillier, MPP for Lanark, Frontenac, Lennox & Addington, PC Leadership candidate, announced today he would allow competition to the foreign owned Beer Store.
“Beer distribution in this province is currently controlled by foreign companies.” Hillier said. “In these tough times we need to give struggling small Canadian businesses like corner stores, restaurants and hotels more opportunities.”
“Dalton McGuinty is costing local Ontario businesses millions of dollars, to the benefit of foreign-owned breweries.”
Hillier proposes to allow corner stores to be able to sell wine and beer. As well restaurants, bars and hotels would be able to sell off-sales to further help their businesses.
“These changes will help Ontario’s service industry grow and prosper, and provide more options for Ontarians” continued Hillier.
The Hillier campaign is anchored by three central principles: Freedom, Justice and Democracy.
Randy Hillier was first elected to the Ontario legislature in October 2007 – winning one of three new seats for the PC Party of Ontario – and was the party’s critic for rural affairs.

I won't go so far as to drink Keith's for the rest of my days, but the stance on ONE issue, meaningful to only a small segment of the population, doesn't justify a carte blanche ticket to the leadership desk.Bytowner wrote:Hillier is a libertarian whack job (well libertarian up to the point of gay marriage, then he magically turns into a raging social conservative). I'll drink Keith's for the rest of my days before this idiot becomes the premier of Ontario.

Yeah I don't really want to get too far off track here, but they aren't really in line with my values and my thinking, so I'd not cast a vote for them......but that can change with time too. And I was raised by a Marxist mom, and a Blue Tory father. Go figure.
If you`re reading this, there`s a 15% chance you`ve got a significant drinking problem. Get it fixed, get recovered!
Fair enough. Usually that thinking shouldn't be as black and white as people make it out to be.SteelbackGuy wrote:Queef wrote:kind of comment that explains so much about canadian politics.SteelbackGuy wrote:But I'd never vote conservative anyway

ahhh... agreed. I don't really think the PC's really are much into free enterprise anyway, mostly just talk.Tapsucker wrote:That was not my point. My point was that to get free enterprise, we should not have to return to a social conservative backwater
