It is illegal for a man to drink with a woman in an Edmonton beer parlour in Alberta.

Speaking as a transplanted Albertan: This is a very old law, versions of it were found across Canada up until the early 1960s. It usually applied to smaller beer parlours, that didn't serve food. These establishments would be split into two parts (although they might share a central bar and cash register). One side was labelled "men only", the other side was "women and escorts". That was all the choice you got. A man could drink with a woman, but only on the "W&E" side. A woman on her own was out of luck.

One way around this was to serve food. You could also extend your serving hours in these places, if the price of food served equalled or exceeded the price of the booze. Beer prices were set by law, so it was not uncommon to see bars serve $5 bags of chips - the same bag being 25 cents in the cafe across the street. Ah, it all brings back memories of a misspent youth.

On a totally unrelated note: it is illegal in Alaska to wake a sleeping bear in order to photogrpah it. I guess it is OK if you just want to chat.
