Fixed it for you. Didn't want to post the obvious least I be slagged for TO bashing as some members are sensitive. Nope. It's across Ontario. The Medical Officers of Health are united on this one. |

Dying from COPD is a hell of a way to go. The payback, however, in reduced health costs, is quite high. The next campaign will be to promote moderation in consuming alcohol. |

There are plenty of other things that could be addressed that have a dramatic effect on health care costs. Of course those are left alone as smokers are the low hanging fruit for harassment and easily demonized by the majority of the population reminiscent of the 30s in Germany. said by DKS: The next campaign will be to promote moderation in consuming alcohol. But..but..but alcohol probably causes as much or more death, injury and expense to the health care system so start clamping down on it like cigarettes. Oh, that's right, it's enjoyed by far more of society and would be harder to demonize those who drink even moderately. |

Define "Moderation".
Does Dalton increase taxes on booze in the name of "Social Responsibility". Does Dalton curtail the hours of the LCBO to make it harder to get booze. Does Dalton shut down the Wine Stores? |

Those aren't on the radar. Sin taxes are a revenue matter, not a health matter. Moderation means developing a culture where binge drinking is strongly discouraged, among other things. |

BUT DKS,you've hit the nail on the head, Moderation leads to less revenue, and thus has to be made up elsewhere. |
