MONTREAL — Quebec’s liquor Crown corporation says it’s seeing a surge in sales at some stores along the boundary with Ontario amid a strike by workers of that province's liquor control board.

MONTREAL — Quebec’s liquor Crown corporation says it’s seeing a surge in sales at some stores along the boundary with Ontario amid a strike by workers of that province's liquor control board.

"Spirits and ready-to-drink products are particularly popular," Bouchard wrote Tuesday in a statement, adding"the shelves empty quickly." Approximately 10,000 workers at the Liquor Control Board of Ontario walked off the job July 5 after negotiations broke down. The Ontario Public Service Employees Union, which represents them, has said the province's alcohol-expansion plans that would see ready-to-drink cocktails sold outside LCBO stores are the main issue in the dispute.

A number of industries, from tourism operators to wedding venues, have expressed concern about the impact the strike is having on their operations.
