Who funded this study ? I do not mean the direct fund provider, but who the top-level funder is. I am willing to bet it was funded by some alcohol company(s) or a trade Group funded by some alcohol related group.

"Funding/Support: This study was partly funded by the CCSA as a subcontract for a Health Canada grant to develop guidance for Canadians on alcohol and health."

BUT

"Conflict of Interest Disclosures: Dr Stockwell reported receiving personal fees from Ontario Public Servants Employees Union for expert witness testimony and personal fees from Alko outside the submitted work. Dr Sherk reported receiving grants from Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction (CCSA) during the conduct of the study. No other disclosures were reported."

Where "Alko Inc is the national alcoholic beverage retailing monopoly in Finland."
