Is it true that Canada is making US citizens be 21 to drink there?

Someone told me that as of today January 1st you need to be 21 to drink in Canada now. Is this true?Is it true that Canada is making US citizens be 21 to drink there?
This is completely untrue. A little early for April Fools. The drinking age or age of majority as it is called here in Canada is 18 or 19 depending on which province you reside in. This means that voting, cigarette buying and drinking in pubs or going to casinos is a no-no until you reach these ages. Hope this helps.Is it true that Canada is making US citizens be 21 to drink there?
depends on the province your in ...and no matter if your american and you come to our country you have to abide by the laws of the province your in as well...just because your american does not excempt you from canadian laws once your here...its just like canadians who travel to the states .If we are in your country we would have to abide by that states laws!


If one does not like it either way one does not have to travel outside your own country ...
The drinking age is provincial in Canada just as it is state law in the US. It doesn't matter whether you are Canadian, American, or Martian, the law regarding drinking age is the same for everybody that goes into a bar or liquor store, whether that law is 18, 19, or whatever.
It depends on the province. Drinking age is a provincial responsibility, and the age ranges from 18 to 19 - I don't think it is 21 in any province. It doesn't matter what country you come from. When in Canada you have to abide by Canadian laws, just as when in the US you have to abide by US laws.
I highly doubt it.





Canada is a criminal mind? Get a life, Dude!
The drinking age in Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec is 18, in all other provinces the legal age is 19. The Canadian and American Legal systems are separate, Canadians do not enforce the American Drinking Age in Canada. But I would not suggest being drunk and passing back into the states, that could be a problem.
You only need to be 19 to drink....
