The LCBO, has reversed its decision to temporarily reopen five stores for bar and restaurant owners during an ongoing workers’ strike.
The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) initially planned to open the key locations to support businesses affected by the strike. However, these plans were scrapped after the union representing the striking workers threatened to picket the reopened stores.
In response to the union’s actions, the LCBO reiterated that they are taking online orders. The move aims to help bar and restaurant owners maintain their supply without crossing picket lines.
The LCBO continues to navigate the challenges posed by the strike, seeking ways to support their customers while respecting the rights of their workers.
The new online service is expected to offer some relief to business owners during this challenging time
