Brewer's bid to name oval loses fizz

I was so f'ing pissed when I read this this morning in ANS. Basically our esteemed 127 year old councillor from Dartmouth seems to have decided to push her prohibition agenda and got others to buy in, leaving taxpayers to pick up the $400,000 extra in costs.

God knows that seeing the name Molson is going to cause 8 year olds to drink. Next on her agenda: rename our hockey team the "Halifax Elks".

The beer giant was narrowly edged out of rink naming rights Tuesday by regional councillors during an in camera session. They voted 12-11 against Molson Coors’ $400,000 pledge.
