Say no to billionaire profits.

Join the fight for the future of the LCBO!

Doug Ford wants to make life better for his wealthy buddies. It’s why he plans to fast-track privatized alcohol sales and hand more of the public revenues generated by the LCBO over to the CEOs and big box grocery and convenience chains like Loblaws and Circle K.

Doug Ford can’t be trusted.

The LCBO is Ontario’s best kept secret – and it's worth protecting.

Frontline LCBO workers are proud that the revenues we help to generate give back to our communities. We won’t back down in our fight for a strong future for the LCBO and the public services funded by LCBO revenues.

We have a better plan:

We went on strike because 70% of LCBO workers were casual – they didn’t have guaranteed hours, which means most didn’t have access to benefits and there weren’t opportunities to move into permanent part-time and full-time positions. By going on strike, we won 1,000 new permanent part-time jobs in retail and 60 new permanent full-time jobs in logistics – plus a cap on the number of agency stores, and no LCBO store closures for the duration of our new 3 year contract. We will continue our fight for a better future for our members, the LCBO, and Ontario.

Who are we fighting back against?

To raise awareness about our fight and build public support we’ve launched a cheeky ad campaign starring our very own greedy CEO Callum who is trying to convince Ontarians to give him a big slice of the LCBO.

Sure, it invests $2.5 billion into our communities… but that means basically nothing to him! He just doesn’t get why we need hospitals and schools, who’s going to both?

Every, single year, the LCBO hands over a dividend well in excess of $2 billion to the Ontario government to pay for public services, including hospitals, schools and infrastructure.
