British Columbia moves to single wholesale liquor price in 2015
The BC government enacts changes toward a single wholesale price for all liquor retailers from April 1 2015 to curb perceived unfair advantages and simplify discounts. The plan aims to boost competition, with events at ski hills and golf courses encouraged and a single license endorsement for up to 26 events per year introduced from December 9. BCGEU cautions revenue could be affected and will monitor impacts on provincial revenues.
