\nASSOCIATION AGAINST THEPROHIBITION AMENDMENT  \nNATIONAL PRESS BUILDINGWASHINGTON,D.C.  \nResearch DepartmentJoHN C.GEBHART,Director  \nPublished October 1,1929  \nA  \n# Liquor Control in Canadian Provinces\n\nOF the nine provinces in Canada,sevenUhave abandoned prohibition and in itsplace have established government liquor con-trol as the better solution of the problems ofintemperance.Only two provinces on theAtlantic seaboard,Nova Scotia and littlePrince Edward Island,still cling to bone-drylaws.Of the Dominion's population,thereare 8,877,000,or more than 93 per cent,living in provinces having liquor controlstatutes,and 629,700 under prohibition.  \nQuebec is the pioneer in the Canadianliquor control movement,having introducedthe system in May,1921.A month laterBritish Columbia followed suit.In 1923,1924 and 1925,Manitoba,Alberta andSaskatchewan,respectively,adopted the plan.The latest provinces to take up the reform areOntario and New Brunswick,which madethe change from prohibition in 1927.  \nIn the United States,there has been con-siderable misunderstanding about Canadianliquor legislation.It is not known generallythat there are seven liquor control systems,notwo of which are exactly alike.As each pro-vince has found the experiment of prohibi-tion a failure,it has embraced the broad prin-ciple of government control as a corrective,but the seven laws based on that principlehave been so framed as to conform to condi-tions peculiar to the locality.  \nInasmuch as the advanced legislation of aneighboring country,where prohibition hasbeen tried,has a direct bearing on the liquorproblem in the United States,this pamphlethas been prepared for persons who may wishto know the facts about the Canadian sys-tems,and particularly for those who acceptthe evils of the Volstead Act only because theyprefer that law to the saloon.  \nOfficial information,outside the field ofcontroversy,is presented herewith.It hasbeen supplemented with material gathered onthe ground by representatives of this Associa-tion who were sent into every province ofCanada.Their investigations,which lastedseveral months,brought them into contactwith government officers,who spoke with au-thority,and also enabled them to observeconditions at first hand.  \n# \"States'Rights\"in Canada\n\nWhile Canadian provinces have not been1mmune from certain legislative inroads bythe Federal government,which have created aproblem similar to the States'Rights issue inthe United States,the liquor enactments ofthe Dominion Parliament have in the mainbeen either permissive or supplementary toprovincial statutes.The Canada TemperanceAct of 1878 empowered communitiesthroughout the provinces to adopt local op-tion legislation.In the days of the WorldWar,a wave of prohibition legislation sweptover the country.The Federal governmentlater amended the Temperance Act so as toenable dry provinces to exclude importationof intoxicating
