Not true. We deal with alot of bullshit in this trade as well. I don't live in Ontario, but I wasn't off when COVID was a scary thing. I worked my ass off too especially when everyone panic bought just like in this video.

They're striking because of their wages. Whoever works at lcbo needs to understand that they're equivalent to a grocery store cashier. You are already paid more with better work conditions.

Working at the LCBO is not the same as working at a grocery store. No one would work at a liquor store in Ontario, especially in a big city, for minimum wage. They would not be able to retain employees. It's much easier to work at Walmart, Tim Hortons, Loblaws, etc. and not have to deal with dangerous angry drunks on a daily basis. The small premium in pay is necessary.

Was out when I heard about the strike, so I went to my local Metro that, surprise, doesn’t sell liquor. I called another Metro in the area which also doesn’t sell any. They told me to check stores all over the city…like I’ve got time to do that. And no, The Beer Store isn’t an option.

They're all complaining that they haven't recovered... after the strike is over, what's next? Are they going to blame the diners for not ordering enough (overpriced) food?

It is difficult to consider a news-media source reputable when the copy editing is so sloppy. The strangest part though is the deliberate choice to ignore the corrections and feedback from the comments section. It's as though they are adamant in their improper use of language. How difficult would it be to edit an "e" for an "a"?
