Got nailed for having some beers on a beach last weekend, everyone was drinking but I was the only one apprehended. 1 year probation plus 24 hours community service. 5 days jail time suspended sentence.
What the fuck ?
It’s a 140$ ticket here in Quebec and 95% of the time the cops will make you empty it, kick you out (unless you’re too drunk to drive) and won’t even ticket you .
Wait, I thought we were legally allowed to drink in the parks in MTL. We aren't supposed to?
Don’t know about MTL, but in Quebec City if you’re drinking wine/beer on the Plains of Abraham and have food, it’s considered a picnic and they won’t bother you unless you’re causing a scene.
If you’re at Carré D’Youville skating and drinking tall boys, the cops will bother you. Same goes for skate parks.
I’ve had cops tell me to empty my beer whilst fishing in the Saint Lawrence River, so I really don’t know what the law is. I’m guessing some places are more tolerated than others.
