Where Politics And Video Games Collide

@Benji: See that's how things work in Canada. I've worked at a video rental store for 4 years, a games store for 1, and currently work at a major electronics retailer and have been for the last 4. Both film ratings and video game ratings are enforeced by law. All retailers are required to post information on the ratings system and ask for ID for anyone who looks under age for the rated R for films or M for mature entertainment. In my almost 10 years of experience I have NEVER EVER seen anyone get fined. Mostly because everywhere I've worked it's part of training to be taught that you have to check for ID. It's fairly easy, hell, 2 out of the 3 places I worked had reminders coded into the POS software to ask for ID and requiring you to press a key to move pass the message. If anyone fails to do so, and is somehow cought by the local film board(the provincial bodies that regulate ratings) the store and the employee gets fined. Trust me you'll remember to check ID every damn time when you have a $500 fine hanging over your head.
