In Ontario the Liquor License Act specifically allows parents to provide alcohol to their children in the home if they see fit to foster education on moderation & responsible use.

I don't see any exemption for parents. Abstinance is a failure in most instances of education around responsible behaviour involving sex, alcohol and other vices, including drugs. 

In this the Liberals are demanding a policy of abstinance and it will go against the wishes of many parents.

That exemption for alcohol between parents and minor children also stands to demonstrate how the 14 years in any case is stupid-style overkill.

Are they hedging their bets? Showing their true CPC colours by crafting the law such a way that we can still fill prisons un-necessarily, or use the law to harass brown people, or protect the profits of the well-connected Liberals that make up the largest investment bloc in legalized marijuana?

One thing is certain, they are stupid.
