Beer To Be Sold In Select Ontario Grocery Stores By Christmas

Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne says people could see beer for sale at select grocery stores in the province by Christmas time.

At a news conference Wednesday morning, Wynne announced that by December, about 60 Ontario grocery stores will get their authorization to sell beer, part of the government's plan announced earlier this year to open up how beer and wine is sold in the province. By May, about 150 stores will be approved to sell beer.

"Beer in grocery stores could be seen as a holiday present that many people have been waiting for a long time," said Wynne. "That wait is over."
