Yesterday Canada's Supreme Court ruled in a unanymous 7-0 decision that
"Private citizens who throw social parties are not the same as commercial barkeeps and are not legally liable for the actions of irresponsible guests.".
Here's the link (I think you have to be registered to view):

One person was killed by a DUI driver. Another 18 year-old woman was left a parapalegic.
I'm undecided about the wisdom of this decision.
What do all of you think? Is it good or bad, and what do you think the effects will be??
