Downtown Vancouver's last call was moved to 4:00 a.m. but was subsequently lowered to 3{{nbsp}}a.m. On [[New Year's Eve]] last call is extended to 4{{nbsp}}a.m. provincewide if food is available to patrons at the premises. Regulated liquor stores (both private and government-operated) can sell off-premises alcohol from 9:00 a.m. until 11:00{{nbsp}}p.m., with government-operated liquor stores typically closing before 9{{nbsp}}p.m.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.pssg.gov.bc.ca/lclb/apply/liquor_retail/index.htm |title=Liquor Retail Stores - Applying for a Liquor Licence - Liquor Control and Licensing Branch |publisher=Pssg.gov.bc.ca |access-date=2013-07-31}}</ref> * [[Alberta]]: Last call and sale of alcohol from a store or establishment is 2{{nbsp}}a.m. province-wide.
