feedback
Starting this month, B.C. liquor laws now allow some
grocery stores (10,000 square feet with 75 per cent of
sales from food products) to sell liquor and B.C. wines,
so we asked readers whether they would raise a glass
to the new legislation. Between January 19 and 23, 161
readers responded to an online poll that asked: Is B.C.'s
new legislation just right, too liberal or not liberal enough?

I think B.C.'s position,
while a tad
complicated,
is a good
compromise

Feeling the Love
It seems rankings are something every-
one relates to, and our list of B.C.'s most
loved brands ("Show Me Love," Febru-
ary 2015) was no exception. Carolyn
Tatton enjoyed seeing how the brands
achieved their results but was also curi-
ous about the role money plays: "One of
the metrics which I believe applies to all
of these brands is that, aside from their
design, marketing, social media and
content strategies, they also all have very
large media buys."
Trev Kernested, meanwhile, said
"there is a difference between most
loved and most recognized. Brands like
Telus, TransLink, ICBC wouldn't be most
loved in spite of their heavy marketing."

CORRECTIONS: Two names were spelled incorrectly in the February
issue of BCBusiness. Brent McFerran's name was misspelled on page 45 of
"Flying High," and Natallie Doman's name was incorrect on pages 50 and 51
