I'd like some evidence of that. It was Danielle Smith and other critics in opposition to it.

Critics claimed the government was going after the people who would stop in for a beer or two after work. Or the couple that drinks a glass of wine over dinner.

To get a better understanding of the new drunk driving laws, the Calgary Police Service held a “social dosing” session. The premise was simple, drink booze, eat food, mimic a business lunch and see what your blood alcohol level is.
The Calgary Police Service literally ran sessions were people drank more than one and tested to show they were still under 0.05.
