But when the province set the new .05 impaired threshold, everyone from the premier to Calgary's police chief was saying that Albertans could still go out and have drinks, they just had to arrange for a cab. And if the cab shortage in Calgary really meant people should not have been going out in public to drink, then it was an even worse system than we thought, because it was detering customers from the much larger food and drink industry.
The fact is, the lack of cabs in this city has almost certainly increased the incidence of drunk driving. That doesn't make drunk driving right or excuse it - it's simply cause and effect.
