Calgary is just hours away from becoming the first city in Canada to regulate trans fat, with new grease-fighting rules set to kick in on New Year's Day.
The new rules ban restaurants in the city from cooking with oils that have a trans fat content of two per cent or higher.
And margarines and spreads used in restaurants must also remain below the 2 per cent threshold.

Meh, good idea in theory.
But should the government start regulating stuff like this?
Why is it beneficial to use trans fats in the first place?
I don't like this though....caption under picture.

Guilty pleasures, like poutine, won’t be as bad for your health after Calgary's new fat rules are in place.

Sure, lets just ignore the insane amount of calories that poutine has. Hopefully people aren't stupid enough to think they can load up on the poutine everyday because, well, no more trans fats!
