Put me down as not liking the grey area, where the Police at their discretion can make a judgement. I'd rather they set the limit to .05 and if you're over, you're subject to charges, if you're under you're okay.
This does tend to hurt the business of pubs and restaurants, especially in smaller places. There are people who don't live in downtown Calgary or 17th avenue and can walk to pubs and restaurants. When I lived in Sylvan Lake you could walk to the pubs, but if you went for a beer or two after work on a Friday in the winter, did you really want to walk home in -20 weather? And in terms of cabs...there were like 3 cabs in the entire town, you could wait an hour to get a cab.
