This Ales Molson Retirees


Things are getting serious! Unemployment is climbing, property values are sinking, taxes are inching their way up and in Canada, Molson retirees are slowly losing their free beer allowance!

Molson, a division of Molson Coors, said it was looking to "standardize" its complimentary beer policy. There are 2,400 Molson retirees in Canada and their free beer costs the company about C$1 million ($900,000) a year, the Star said.

Molson retirees in the province of Newfoundland will see their monthly allotment of beer fall from six dozen a month to zero over the next five years.

Current workers will see their allotment drop from 72 dozen bottles a year to 52 dozen.

Disgraceful!

I suggest that all of these retirees make up the difference with LeBatts.
