Hopefully if they know of the double-standard being applied by the AGCO's interpretation of its rules and how it's damaging new business models in a emerging industry (craft brewing) for the province, then maybe the politicians will do something about it.

It is a monopoly, period. They do as they like, up to and including publishing glossy magazine with ads from wine and spirits and beer makers who -- OMG -- tremble at the prospect of suffering if they don't buy in. No one in the private sector could get away with it, they'd be charged with conspiracy and price-fixing against the public interest.
