I am against Ford and any actions that prevent expansions and leave more options for consumers, and this strike shows that LCBO is against leaving more options for people. According to the union, the expansion may affect around 9% of ready-to-drink cocktails. I mean... C'mon!

If they had done this a few years ago, pre-Covid it probably would’ve more of an effect. Now you can literally get alcohol almost anywhere. For example, tonight, I’m making Jell-O shots and I just realized today LCBO is on strike so obviously I can’t get vodka. I literally just went on DoorDash ordered from Boston Pizza for only five bucks more. And they deliver it to my house within 30 minutes. So I don’t really understand what LCBO workers think they are getting out of this.

Agree to disagree but I have a problem with striking as a negotiation tactic (conversely I also disagree with lockouts). If I decided not to do my job until my employer finds more money or appeases me from a job security perspective, I’d be replaced. Not everyone who wants more money necessarily deserves to be paid more than they are making - that’s the employers’s right, to dictate what an individual position and worker are worth to their business. It is a rarity that these discussions don’t start with the employer offering some sort of blanket pay increase over the term of the next collective agreement. The very concept of walking off the job to fight for job security is a hilarious oxymoron.

For decades now Unions have broken companies and driven a move to offshore manufacturing. Times have change now and companies are clearly putting shareholder revenue above employee value. It is time that unions like this one take back the respect that they deserve. Casual help is supposed t be just that, casual not continual to avoid paying benefits. Job security is critical. Moving sales to corner stores is a business case for the governemnt. They will still get the tax benfits without the business costs. Our prices will not go down. Our taxes will not go down. The only difference is that unemployment will go up to pay for more government revenue. I fully support the union in this.

LCBO gives back 2.5 billion in revenue to your communities

@namduong8437 4 күн бұрын

I never know an individual can get pain with such frequency and doctors are late with such frequency that require them to get booze every time, enough to make a justification for LCBO's monopoly LCBO is giving billions to communities? Since when are people willingly accepting that a corporate gives a huge amount of money away? I thought people like to point out how corporates pay too little in tax percent while not giving a damn about tax dollars or any other factor? Even if LCBO contributes that much money, giving grocery stores' permission to sell RTD beverages also gives tax back to the government. LCBO is not special, it's giving more because it's the only one at the moment that can sell liquor This union is such a shame to society. Nothing but entitlement

@@namduong8437 all tax goes to government obviously but I'm just speaking about revenue here. With the revenue that these grocery and other stores have, and they will exceed a lot. Where will that go? Not my well being I know that.

⁠@@willp_2k765i don't have ill intention toward you but i don't see where you're coming at. The revenue that LCBO is generating alone can be achieved by multiple unassociated stores together. More stores = better for consumers as a whole. As i mentioned, LCBO is not special. I hope for the government to remove all those barriers to access to liquor selling. We will begin to see a significant decline in power from this strike. These workers and LCBO can be replaced easily

@@willp_2k765 Employees. Their marketing budget is silly. You need to read up. If the LCBO was a proper store, they would have failed decades ago. It's a huge failure, supported by something that's taken out of the economy.
