Full disclosure: I grew up in New York City when the drinking age was 18. Of course people were also being drafted at that age into the U.S. military and sent to Vietnam, so there was a certain logic in treating 18 as the official entry into adulthood. Like the New York of my youth, the minimum legal drinking age (MLDA) is 18 in Alberta, Manitoba and QuÃ©bec, and 19 in the rest of Canada. The year in which a young person âturns legalâ can be a perilous one.
The other two countries are Iceland and Japan, which both have a drinking age of 20. The main problem with the United Statesâs having a drinking age of 21 is that the age of majority is 18 (19 in Alabama and Nebraska), as it is throughout most of the world.That is the age when a person assumes the legal rights and responsibilities of an adult.irst, it is not the federal governmentâs business to prevent any legal adult of any age from purchasing alcohol. If a drinking age of 21 prevents highway deaths of those who are 18â20, then the same argument could be made that a drinking age of 25 would prevent highway deaths of those who are 18â24.
