Abstract
This commentary examines the public health relevance of age, period and cohort effects in heavy episodic drinking in Canada, focusing on socio-economic inequalities and policy implications. It highlights the paradox between observed socio-economic gradients and persistent disparities in alcohol-attributable harm, and contextualizes these findings within the current Canadian policy environment.
