well people on this board have been preaching this for say, since LOL'02. And now we have actual proof that it has been taking place.

for shame.

i have searched every news venue possible, and i could not find an actual list of the bars/clubs being fined. The least they could do is tell us!!!

I hope the Guv can finally be a dance friendly place

When the media and cops start focussing in on the club scene its never a good thing. Proof? How many 20,000 person syrous raves happen in Toronto in 2004 for example?

Look for the city to impose ridiculous rules similar to what they did in 2000 that effectively killed the rave scene.

I hope someone points them in Guv's direction!

They will be looking at "all" clubs according to this article. Including the ones you play at im sure

"We all know of the horror stories down in the States with these clubs.... If something goes wrong inside those clubs, we want to be sure people can get out. I don't want to have 600 body bags on the road." "The whole idea is to find ways the bars can improve and to make sure everything is up to standard," Campbell said, noting the area — bounded by University Ave., Queen St. W., Spadina Ave. and Front St. W. — is home to about 70 large nightclubs and many smaller ones.

It looks like they will be going after Boa and the Zone too.

Folks get a clue, when the general public starts focussing in on the club scene, ITS NEVER A GOOD THING FOR PARTIERS!

And as a result made partying cleaner and safer. Not to mention we get a lot more headliner DJs than we got back in the day..

exactly.

And our move away from the more intimate/underground venues to the big club venues, wasnt just in TO people. This is global EDM culture shift. Look at britain, huge super clubs, not little parties. Yes i know they still have them, but the big/in demand DJs dont attend.

Look at the bigger picture people. The scrutiny of the public was the not the only reason that partying became clubbing, there was just more money in it, so it went more main stream.

^^ Yup sounds about right...And I'm all up for cleaner and safer, i don't need drugs to party, nobody does...and if you need drugs to have a good time then youre just foolin' yourself hehe

But think I'm the only clean dude here...
