Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries will deploy pop-up liquor kiosks in six Winnipeg grocery stores to expand access.
Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries plans to introduce pop-up liquor kiosks in six Winnipeg grocery stores lacking nearby Liquor Marts. These 550-square-foot kiosks aim to enhance customer convenience. However, critics, including private liquor store owners and advocacy groups, warn that increased alcohol access may elevate risks of impaired driving and other alcohol-related issues. The initiative reflects the current NDP government's push for more public liquor sales.
