Ontario is moving forward with plans to allow the sale of beer and wine in corner stores, including locations like 7-Eleven, despite opposition from some Toronto elites. The decision has sparked debate, with critics pointing to the high economic costs of alcohol and the ongoing support for initiatives like safe injection sites and COVID-19 safety measures. The move marks a significant shift in the province's liquor sales policies. Additionally, White Claw will also be available at these stores.
