"Negotiations are continuing, but if a strike happens, it will be the first in LCBO history.

If workers do go on strike the LCBO says its 800 managers will try their best to keep stores running."

"But it also means the province could be out a lot of money.

With a profit of $1.3 billion last year, Ontario stands to lose as much as $3.5 million each day of a strike."

LOL

Thanks to all those crazy ALCOHOLICS stocking up their shelves to last them 2 weeks instead of the usual 1-2 days... you can't buy anything now because it's all bare...

EFF OFF!! LOLOLOL The stores will still be open, certain ones anyways that have stock left... but the workers won't be there.. the Managers I think will be there.. but that's it...
