The Canada Temper- ance Act was the outcome of these cdreumatalicee. The Canada Temperance Act had wide vogue in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick and for some time in Ontario and parts of Quebec. Its alvantages are that it is' a county measure (being applicable to coon- ties or cities) and that it is brought in or removed on a simple majority vote of the electors con. cornett, While forbidding retail sale of liquor within a county, it Permits a brewery or distillery located withiu the area to sell it. wholesale lots to ,purchasers resi- dent beyond its 'bounds.
