[Here’s a link to a CTV story](https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/what-you-should-know-about-canada-s-new-alcohol-guidelines-1.6239499) about the new guidelines for anyone curious. For those outside of the country, the government here isn’t telling people how much they *can* drink, rather a NGO has updated a set of recommendations that will (according to the CCSA anyways – the NGO in question) reduce the risks associated with consuming alcohol.
He’s right about the pop. But it is just a guideline. Anyone taken a look at the Canada Food Guide lately? If we were actually required to abide by those guidelines Canadians would be up in arms and it would be one hell of a miserable and angry army.
Heck I’d grab a beer with that dude. He seems fun. Can’t help to think he’s acctualy the Canadian version of the tooth fairy what with the despise of pop
I don’t think there’s any doubt that many many people drink way way too much and it’s certainly a good idea for people in general to review how much they drink and consider cutting down. That being said, 2 drinks a week is ridiculous imo.
To be fair, the new guidelines are equivalent to 1.3 pints of beer per week, which is a tiny bit goofy in a country where the provincial governments control the sales and advertising of alcohol.
This is like not very far off a Ricky speech. Like 2 or 3 more mispronounced words and he’s there.
Moving to 6 beers up from 4, which is already doubling 2. Ricky would get to 5 or 6 and say he’s only had 3 or 4 and keep going until he’s wasted as fuck out on the driveway
Overheard some politically active idiots in the train couple days ago saying that Canada banned drinking more than 2 alcoholic drinks a day and that “we” should be careful that our government wouldn’t do the same. Just the plain infeasibility of the enforcement should have warned any sane person that that was bullshit.
Reminds me of that beautiful dutch interview with a guy named Martin. His wife insists he is just a normal drinker and they name how much he drinks per day. Came down to 7 shots and 4 beers per day.
“And if you think that’s a lot than maybe its you who is crazy!”
I’ve had 4 lovable maniac party friends die spaced out over last year because drinking finally took it’s toll. I thought they were invincible, but there are limits. Blows my mind how wildly accepted it is to drink way too much.

The tooth is out there.

This is the guy Dave Thomas and Rick Moranis were parodying all these years.
4 beer?

He’s been keeping that one in his back pocket for a while now.
I appreciate the dedication to the proper plural grouping of many beer.
My left speaker is out on my laptop. Guy being interviewed is entirely on the left channel. Was confused for a moment.
When your liver looks like a giant rock hard loaf of bread.
2 litres of POP!
A Heritage Minute brought to you by Historica Canada.
PAHP!
I’ll drink a few tallboys with him on a cold football Sunday.
The government guidelines for weed smoking is to not inhale deeply lol
To be fair, the new guidelines are equivalent to 1.3 pints of beer per week, which is a tiny bit goofy in a country where the provincial governments control the sales and advertising of alcohol.
I think I’d enjoy having a beer with this guy. Just one though.
This literally looks and sounds like a Stavros Halkias character.
I was not ready to handle the tooth and I indeed could not.
Journalists: “What do you think of the new GUIDELINE?”
Guy: “DON’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!”
Reminds me so much of [this Mitchell and Webb sketch](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfwnjO9o8OU) about lager beer.
4 Beers or 2L of Coca Cola. Do the math.
This is like not very far off a Ricky speech. Like 2 or 3 more mispronounced words and he’s there.

Reporter: “Would you be concerned that you’re at a higher health risk if you’re drinking too much”
Man who looks like a walking health risk: “No!”
The sound on this video actually hurt my brain
My conversation with my doctor, after those liver levels come back.
Overheard some politically active idiots in the train couple days ago saying that Canada banned drinking more than 2 alcoholic drinks a day and that “we” should be careful that our government wouldn’t do the same. Just the plain infeasibility of the enforcement should have warned any sane person that that was bullshit.
I think this guy is grossly misunderstanding the concept of “guidelines.”
Reminds me of that beautiful dutch interview with a guy named Martin. His wife insists he is just a normal drinker and they name how much he drinks per day. Came down to 7 shots and 4 beers per day.
“And if you think that’s a lot than maybe its you who is crazy!”
This dude definitely drinks more than a 6pack/day
Did he say “You can’t handle the Tooth”?
I’ve had 4 lovable maniac party friends die spaced out over last year because drinking finally took it’s toll. I thought they were invincible, but there are limits. Blows my mind how wildly accepted it is to drink way too much.
> What’s worse, four beers or 2 litres of pop? You do the math.
What’s worse, stubbing your left toe or stubbing your right toe? That a bad alternative exists isn’t a reason to green light the other.
Very confused as to why he keeps saying “they’re telling me how much I can drink in my own home”.
Does he not know what guideline means?
