It used to be worse
I recall back to a time when all the liquor stores in BC were run by the government. There was no place other than the BCLS to get any spirits. Cold Beer and Wine could only sell just that, and it was a serious pain to get to the BCLS before it closed after work. It seemed like the damn stores were always closed! Perhaps that's why so many people in BC practiced recreational pharmacology.
I think the publicly ran liquor stores were the reason the provincial government hiked up the taxes so much, and in typical government fashion, now that the publicly owned stores are gone, the tax still remains.
