If they actually shut things down, they might have to support laid off workers. Better to do the "I'm not touching you" style of layering on restrictions to make businesses unviable so you can get lockdowns for free.

i am kinda pissed i didn't stock up on beer/wine/liquor before the holidays, not gonna lie. pretty sure there's no way i can get anything delivered before the new year either. ordinarily i'd just go to the convenience store or the nearby specialty beer store, but, well...

Oh, turns out it was just an anti-bootlegging measure that happened to take place during the pandemic. I sincerely thought it was related.

quote:

“I struggle to see a reasonable situation where this would affect someone unless they are bootlegging,” said Rylund Johnson, the Yellowknife North MLA, referring to the newly announced $200 daily limit.

“That being said,” he added, “I suspect bootleggers will always find a way – even in a pandemic.”

Uh huh. $200.

Anyway, it was later scrapped.

You'd have to sell to people who can't easily get to the liquor store, I guess. Buy a trunk full of booze then drive out to a remote community and sell it off, people will pay a premium to avoid making the drive themselves.
