Canadian Prices

U. S. citizens planning summer tours of Canada have observed that Ontario liquor prices are considerably lower than liquor prices in Quebec. Prices announced when Ontario became Wet (TIME, March 21) easily underbid prices in Quebec, and though Quebec has replied by issuing a new downward revision of its liquor tariffs, Ontario still claims the least expensive of Canadian thirsts.
