I'm driving up to tremblant in jan and I have a few questions.

1. my friend says alcohol is expensive there, is this true?

2. if it is, we would like to bring a shitload of beer across the border. is this legal? we are all age 19-20, so we arent supposed to have beer in the us, but its legal in canada.

thanks for any help

transporting beer across the border is illegal

and you're in the age group where you're very likely to get searched

You should be smarter than this. You're asking if you think it's legit for an underage teen to try and bring alcohol into Canada, just because it's legal up there. Think...................no no no...............think some more...................you're almost there...................yup! Bad idea.

i went up last spring break with a friend (were both 18) and the alcohol was really not that much more expensive. it's much more worth it to just buy it there and there are places right near the mountain you can get it. definately dont take american alcohol

If your staying in the village, you can go the SAQ (government run liquor store) and buy hard alcohol (and a small variety of import beers) at regulated prices. However, if you want beer, you're going to have to go into St-Jovite and hit up a depaneur (corner store) or grocery store. They got beer at the general store in Tremblant, but they charge you an arm and a leg for it (50$+ for 24).

So I'd suggest picking up some brews before getting into Tremblant, and then if you run out, either drive/bus down to st-jovite, or hit up the SAQ and buy some liquor.

see thats what I wanted to hear. a good, informative post. thank you man, I am gonna copy and paste that into the facebook group.

and get flamed for what? I don't think I am asking anything thats flame-worthy, none of my friends have ever been to canada and neither have I. NS is good for getting info, but I just dont appreciate it when people are assholes for no reason. if I asked a really stupid question, told a story that i thought was cool but in reality made me look like an asshole, or posted a controversial opinion I would expect this. but not when asking two simple questions.

and i dont appreciate snwbrdbitch inferring I am retarded.

Price wise, you should be able to find a 24 for around 25$. Obviously it depends on the brand, but generally that's a good rule of thumb to go by.

And if you guys smoke, don't pay more than 10$/g. Weed can be found fairly easily, just ask the guys who look like locals, and they'll either have some or can point you in the right direction.
