Interesting public policy finding?

An alcohol ban in some Canadian provincial parks resulted in big reductions in complaints, vandalism and damages:
...the number of individuals evicted from parks was down by 84%; public complaints were down by 91%; vandalism was reduced by 96%; and, cost of damages was down by 97%.
I wonder is this generalizable or if it was related to a local problem.
