Nope, any bar can deny you entrance. They can deny you entrance if they think you're intoxicated, if you arent dressed properly or you don't meet their age standards, pretty much any superfical thing. These are private establishments and they can choose who they let in whether or not you're of legal age or not.

The Devil's Martini in Toronto is a 25+ bar. However I got in because they didn't card me (I can pass for 25...go me!). Anyway, their resoning behind the 25+ age requirment is that they are catering to a "mature" crowd. I can tell you the crowd is not mature in that place (the club sucked!), but that is their resoning.
Legally in Ontario the only way a bar can deny you entrance is if on it's licence says it is for a specific age. That goes for under 19, if it's liquor licence doesn't specifically state that it is 19+ anybody is legally allowed entrance. That being said there really isn't much you can do except call the AGCO which doesn't do much anyways.
