Alcohol sales at drinking places, such as bars and taverns, in B.C. as well as Nova Scotia , fell by 12 per cent compared to last year .

Ontario and Quebec followed the trend with a dip in sales of 2.7 per cent ( $9.7 million ) and $14 million respectively.

The affordability crunch is hitting sales among younger people especially hard, but costs for operators are going up as well.

A pint ranges from $ 5.25 to $ 7.50 for a beer.

“It’s a bit of a worry that fewer people are drinking,” Matheson said. “We’re not concerned about our establishment; we are worried about the industry as a whole.”.
