Who the hell gave unelected bureaucrats the power to ban stuff?


Seriously, wtf.

Probably the same one that permitted this abnormal fat to be produced, marketed in the first place.
 
Well first off the ones that actually are signing on the dotted line are Calgary's city council so there's your elected accountability.

Secondly, are you suggesting that trans fats SHOULDN'T be banned? Let me guess - you complained vehemently against the smoking ban as well?
 
Yes, and yes. If you don't like smoke in restaurants or trans fats in your food, patronize those establishments that choose to be smoke- or trans fat-free.

As for accountability, every news item I've seen which mentioned that aspect said that the decision was made by the CHR, not city council. Do you have a source that says differently?
