Toronto will finally allow drinking in parks this summer but there's a catch Toronto
Of course, like everything good in this city, the change comes with a catch; You will only be allowed to booze up in parks where the local Councillor has opted into the program.
However, three councillors — Paul Ainslie, Mike Colle, and Stephen Holyday — all voted against the motion, meaning parks in Ward 24 Scarborough—Guildwood, Ward 8 Eglinton—Lawrence, and Ward 2 Etobicoke Centre will remain dry for the summer. City staff will consult with local councillors and work to provide a list of parks most suited for the new pilot program, with the intention to report back to the Economic and Community Development Committee in early July with a recommended approach and list of the required bylaw amendments.
An official program for alcohol consumption in parks follows years of public pressure and even political campaigns focused on allowing drinking in parks.
