The CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) has an extensive online archive of TV and radio clips from their broadcasting history.  One of the topic areas that’s available is entitled “Selling Suds: The Beer Industry in Canada” that covers clips from 1961-2005.  It’s very interesting to see some of changes to the industry over the years.  Something that has never changed, however, is the control that the government has over the industry through the LCBO and The Beer Store.  We can only hope that there will be a news story about this change in our lifetimes.

Thanks to Jon Walker over at Bar Towel for the find.
