The LCBO and the union representing its workers have reached a tentative deal following a two-week strike.
The strike, which began on July 5, led to the closure of stores across the province. It will now end on July 22 at 12:01 a.m. and stores are expected to reopen on Tuesday, July 23.
“LCBO is now working to prepare our people and operations to return to business as usual … More information will be shared shortly,” read a statement from the LCBO.
Further details on the agreement are expected to be shared once the agreement is ratified.
“We recognize the disruption the strike caused for our employees, partners, and customers who rely on our services, and we thank everyone for their continued patience and understanding as we begin resuming regular operations,” continued LCBO’s statement.
Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU) also confirmed an agreement had been reached.
Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy said he was pleased that OPSEU and the LCBO reached an agreement to end the strike.
“This is a good deal for workers and welcome news for Ontarians. We look forward to working together to deliver choice and convenience across Ontario,” read his statement.
