"Quebec has become the first jurisdiction in North America to restrict access to caffeinated energy drinks — to people under 16, in this case.

Bill 9, which imposed age-based restrictions on the purchase of energy drinks, was adopted in the National Assembly Thusday morning.

The new law will come into effect in six months."

"A person under 16 who violates the law could face a $100 fine. Adults could be fined between $500 and $1,500.

For businesses, fines could reach $62,500. In all cases, penalties could be doubled for repeat offences."

I have never tried an energy drink, I think this is a great idea. Those things can not be good for anyone, my 2 cents.

Red Bull is the one I think of when I think energy drink.

Don't drink, don't smoke, don't get online, don't use social media and now don't drink energy drinks, what's a teen to do.
