After a long week at the bargaining table, the union representing nearly 10,000 LCBO employees did not reach a deal to avoid a strike.

"Despite the employer’s consistent unwillingness to bargain meaningfully, this plan is a dramatic, and heavy-handed move at a time when both sides should be working hard to reach an agreement,” the Ontario Public Service Employees Union said in a statement Thursday.“It’s summer, cottage weather and fun times. This is when we get to entertain and BBQ and have friends over—the last few years we haven’t been able to do that,” said Ottawa resident, Kathy Turner.

The union is fighting for higher wages and more full-time positions. They’re also concerned about job security and the future of the LCBO after the Ontario Government announced its plan to expand alcohol sales to more retail locations.
