Canadian Liquor Laws?

[KrazyHorse]

Only on booze, gas and cigarettes though (the stuff that receives other taxes than the usual QST and GST)

I don't think it's much cheaper in the US...

Black or green label?

[KrazyHorse]

Black.

[KrazyHorse]

Old no.7 sour mash whiskey, IIRC

[The Mad Monk]

$19.00 is about right.

$15.00 in warehouse stores.

[KrazyHorse]

I've never seen a green label on JD.

[The Mad Monk]

The green label lacks the word, "old", and is about 20% cheaper. I've never had it.

[KrazyHorse]

I wonder what's different about it...

[The Mad Monk]

I've only seen it once -- in a liquor store in Kansas City, Missouri.

[KrazyHorse]

Sounds about right.

Thanks all
Any ideas of what I should do when I'm in Montreal for bits of three days this spring break when I'm in a drunken stupor?

[KrazyHorse]

When are you going to be in Montreal?

[Bosh]

Will be there the Friday night, Saturday and Sunday morning of the weekend after the upcoming one.

[KrazyHorse]

What type of thing do you like? Restaurants, bars, live music, sleazy clubs?

Good bars with live music: Biddle's for jazz (it's really hard to find...think it's on Union)

Hurley's for Irish music (The south end of Crescent, and the only worthwhile place on that street)

Le Swimming on Saint-Laurent for some random local (and sometime non-local) talent

Go to Schwarz's on Saint-Laurent or Ben's on de Maisonneuve near Peel in order to taste a Montreal smoked meat. Avoid all other locations.

EDIT: for smoked meat, I mean

[KrazyHorse]

And go to Peel Pub on Peel and Ste-Catherine if you want to get hammered in the presence of 16&17 year-old high schoolers and 18-21 year-old university students. Or Angel's, if you want there to be more gratuitous nudity. Or The Dome if you want excessive gratuitous nudity, drunkenness, public sex, hair gel and a free frisking for weapons for all who enter.
