Ontario Premier Doug Ford accused the union leader representing LCBO workers of lying about its privatization as members protested outside of MPP’s offices this week. “Its unfortunate their leader is actually misleading, let me more blunt, lying, about us closing the LCBO . We will never ever close the LCBO .” On Tuesday, workers participated in a province-wide protest demanding the Ford government stop “the sell-off of the LCBO .
” Petitions were distributed to the offices of 11 government officials, including the premier’s constituency office in Etobicoke. Sales will be restricted to beer, wine, cider, coolers, seltzers and “other low-alcohol ready-to-drink beverages.” The Beer Store will still sell beer and will remain a major distributor to retailers, bars and restaurants under a new agreement with the province until at least 2031. The LCBO, the government previously said, will continue to sell and distribute alcohol with an exclusive right to spirits like vodka, gin and whisky
