Holy government control Batman. Where has the freedom gone in Canada?

In a restaurant, I also ordered a burger rare and was informed that all burgers must be cooked to well-done. I ordered a burger rare and was informed that this is a nationwide law.

The government up there can tell you what you can eat and how it must be prepared.

I hope that this never happens to our great country.
