I live in Canada also. I started drinking at 16 and did so pretty heavily at partys for awhile. My parents knew I was doing it but kept an eye on my behavior, although all my freinds at the time consumed alot of alchohal when we got together we did it safely, we never let anyone drive drunk and we never really had any problems. There is no reason to put laws banning consumption of alchohal or tabacco, there should be laws simply stopping the mis-use of these substances. I strongly feel though that the goverment has to much power to moderate our behavior so all my opinions are tainted.
