(b) Provincial Liquor Licensing Policies (File 2611-1)
MOVED by Councillor Louie
SECONDED by Councillor Stevenson
WHEREAS the provincial government has introduced significant changes in liquor licensing policies - including hours of operation, licensing types, and new licensees - that have planning, zoning and regulatory implications for municipalities; and
WHEREAS the provincial government plans to close government liquor stores and distribution centres and turn over all beverage alcohol sales to for-profit companies; and
WHEREAS similar changes of policy in Alberta led to a tripling of the number of liquor stores and caused the Calgary and Edmonton police departments to report significant increases in alcohol-related crimes; and
WHEREAS it appears that responsibility for more policing costs and social services may be downloaded to local governments; and
WHEREAS studies show Alberta's changes have led to higher consumer prices, more stores with less genuine selection, marginalized workers, a host of social problems, and in real terms, decreasing government revenues; and
WHEREAS there has been no opportunity for public discussion and community input into these far-reaching changes
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED:
A. THAT Council urge the Provincial government to institute a moratorium until the end of 2003 to allow municipalities adequate time to develop the appropriate regulations and policies to regulate the sales and distribution of liquor.
B. THAT Council request the Provincial government to provide a formal vehicle - perhaps through the appointment of a commissioner, a committee of MLA's, or similar means - to allow for discussion with communities and municipal input into these issues.
