Ontario's alcohol container return program is at risk as few grocery stores comply with accepting empty containers.
Few Ontario grocery stores are complying with the requirement to accept empty alcohol containers, putting the future of the province's deposit return program at risk.
The Beer Store, which runs the program, reports that only four stores are participating, though the Ministry of Finance claims 13 are complying with more expected to join.
Grocery stores cite concerns about sanitation, space, and costs.
The program's success is further threatened by The Beer Store's ability to close unlimited locations starting January 1 under Premier Doug Ford's alcohol agreement.
