Initial grocery store beer sales don't include North Bay

No beer in grocery stores yet for North Bay.

Premier Kathleen Wynne made history today (Tuesday) by buying a six-pack of beer at a Toronto grocery store, something that hasn’t been legal in Ontario since prohibition.

The goal is to have six-packs of beer available at 60 grocery stores by the end of this year, eventually expanding to 450 grocery retailers, large and small, by 2017.

North Bay is not included in the first round of locations, but two Walmart locations in Sudbury are.
