This is a thread dedicated to peaceful, fellowship dialogue between members of all political persuasions. As suggested by INFALLIBLE here.
Note: the Forum Rules and Politics Forum Rules still apply.
Enjoy. Be nice!

( ALaurie hated that name anyway )  ...yes, I did/do And you did have the idea even before I told you about mine and elanor's convo Seems like the Holy Spirit is moving amongst CF politics posters! *offers a just churned freezer of homemade peach ice cream in support of non-partisan fellowship

But I'm talking about the Canadian Senate. In Canada, the drinking age is either 18 or 19 depending on the province you're in. Not to mention that in Europe there's no age limit for drinking; kids gets wine at supper. So you're fine.
