You're talking about the problems of alcohol in everyday life— and that's bringing them into the open. You've written in from coast to coast in response to 'Dialogue on drinking' to share your suggestions, experiences and reactions. It's clear that responsible citizens — drinkers, non-drinkers, social drinkers, ex-drinkers, teenagers, grandparents, social workers, students — are concerned about Canada's alcohol problems. All agree there is a crying need for moderation along with more information and education on alcohol-related problems and some feel there is a need for a change in attitude because "often more tolerance is shown to the drunk than the non-drinker," even though responsible drinkers and non-drinkers are in the majority.

You're concerned "Society makes you feel like a freak if you don't drink"..."the In Ontario, the Thunder Bay Committee for 'Dialogue on drinking' is well on its way... in Nova Scotia, local committees have joined with service clubs to discuss with hundreds of people, alcohol and its impact on the community.. , in Rothesay, New Brunswick, 40 Knights of Colum- bus have asked how they can help in northern Manitoba, `Dialogue' posters are appearing everywhere even in the hotel washrooms ...Medicine Hat, message constantly screeched on TV is you have to drink"...
