By Next Month, Ontario Residents Will Be Able To Pick Up A Six-Pack At Walmart

TORONTO — Ontarians may be able to buy beer at 60 grocery stores — from multinational big box stores to small, independent grocers — across the province by the end of the year.

The Liberal government announced 13 grocery stores and chains that were chosen to sell beer in the first round of grocery beer sales that will ultimately be expanded to up to 450 outlets.

The selected retailers must now apply to the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario for licences in specific locations, then have shelf space and social responsibility practices for selling alcohol in place. The government hopes that will happen by the end of the year.
