Ontario changes to alcohol sales could lead to higher prices next year

December 23, 2025

Some alcohol prices in Ontario could rise in the new year, with several changes to the alcohol marketplace set to take effect.

The changes flow from Premier Doug Ford’s plans to expand and modernize how alcohol is sold in the province, which has seen beer, wine and coolers now sold in convenience stores, a sharply reduced footprint for The Beer Store and a shifting system for empties.
