Woohoo, if anyone sees someone with a beer can hat paddling across Opeongo at 8am on May 2nd into a stiff headwind that will be me.
When your only tool is a hammer everything is a nail, this group has nothing serious to offer in my humble opinion. Not that I have anything against adults having a drink in a park as long as they clean up after themselves this group keeps going back to the well with this stuff. I'd rather they focus on conservation and better user experiences overall.
Its not as if we didn't imbibe anyways with or without "permission".

I've been to a few parks that allowed uncontrolled imbibing (mostly private) and things weren't good- occasional brawls, lots of garbage, and lots of people ignoring all the other rules. One park got so out of control the owners started having the police do regular patrols and eventually shut down.
I really don't understand Ford's fixation with booze...

This is something most responsible consumers have been doing for decades. Other than not having to conceal a beer in a Yeti mug, nothing else will change. The bad apples that ruin it for everyone will continue to do so, just in a much more open setting.

Not quite what you're saying, but just as an FYI, if you have an open can/bottle in a canoe that's still treated identically to drinking and driving (i.e. a criminal charge, license suspension, etc).

Clearly I was joking, LOL.
