There is actually a reason to why u have to be over 19 to drink in Ontario. a long time ago, u had to be 21, and US was 18, so all the canadians would be going to niagra to get drunk, then, everything turned around, ontario was 18, and US was 21 (all the americans would be comming to canada to get drunk). Right after the law changed to 18, the gov't of ontario saw that every weekend there would be an increase in alchohol related incidents and deaths (probably due to young kinds getting drunk). so instead of gettin the limit back to 21, they changed it to 19, and the amount of alchohol related incidents and death was the SAME as when it was 21, so they decided to keep it at 19, let the kids go out and party!
