Alcohol Breath Tests now mandatory for every traffic stop in Ontario:



For that extra dystopian feeling listen to the newscasters make it sound fun and exciting.

"Hmm, ok lets get to it!" "Yay I got zero!"

"We should have these at work!"

"I love blowing things!"
(I took some liberty with the quotes.)

the exchange rate is favorable, US to Canadian dollar. I spent a night in the Welland penitentiary a long long time ago, not anxious for a return visit. Might be headed to Ottawa or Montreal in June, gotta pick up some Red Breast tax free at the border.

The comments made by the newscasters in the video about the mandatory alcohol breath tests in Ontario may come across as inappropriate given the seriousness of the matter. Making light of such tests can undermine the importance of road safety and responsible driving.

It was stated all drivers will be tested going forward... so just drive backwards and you are clear.

No, what is inappropriate is mandating ALL drivers stopped be tested, without cause.

Not a true Canadian. The cop didn't apologize.
