OTTAWA—Substance abuse experts, medical professionals, and industry leaders have kicked off what they hope will become a national conversation about keeping pre-mixed drinks loaded with alcohol, caffeine, and sugar off shelves and away from young people.
The Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Abuse was among the groups that testified before a House of Commons committee on April 30 about how to best restrict the sale and consumption of the controversial beverages, which are popular among minors and young adults.
