The Ontario government is supporting businesses impacted by the pandemic and continuing to provide choice and convenience for consumers by cutting LCBO wholesale prices for bars and restaurants, enabling curbside pickup of beer, wine and cider from licensed grocery stores, and freezing the basic beer tax rate.
The government is supporting bars, restaurants and other businesses with a licence to operate a liquor consumption premises by cutting wholesale prices for the alcohol they purchase from the LCBO, saving these businesses an effective 20 per cent when compared to retail prices. This change will provide approximately $60 million in annual support to restaurants, bars and other businesses.
“Our government knows that local restaurants and bars across Ontario have done their part to keep people safe by following public health measures. We’ve committed to helping these businesses, and that’s exactly what we’re doing today,” said Peter Bethlenfalvy, Minister of Finance. “A permanent wholesale discount will put about $60 million a year back into these important businesses, so they can invest in themselves and their workers.”

It's application and renewal time for the Production Insurance Fruit Policy. Now is the time to review coverage options to make sure they meet the current needs of the farm business for the year ahead. New customers can contact Agricorp to apply.
Last year, we shortened renewal notices, making it easier for customers to participate and select coverage. We are continuing to improve the renewal process to better serve our customers. Read more below.
Making coverage changes?
Going forward, fruit customers have until January 1 to make coverage changes, giving them more time to understand risks for the year ahead. (For 2022, we will accept coverage changes up until January 4, due to the statutory holiday.)
2022 premium rates and program coverage options are now available on agricorp.com. Our adjusters are also available to help walk customers through their coverage options.
Premium deposit no longer required
Fruit customers are no longer required to pay a premium deposit – one less thing to do when securing coverage. Customers will receive an invoice for their full premium amount in the spring. Premiums are due May 1 (May 15 for strawberries).
Timing of 2022 renewals and more information
Fruit Policy renewal packages will be mailed later in December. If customers haven't already reported their 2021 final yield information, they need to follow up with their adjuster as soon as possible. Reporting yield is required before Agricorp can send the renewal package.
Full Fruit Policy information is available on agricorp.com
Agricorp.com has all the information needed to participate, including premium rates, important dates and other information about how the program works. Customers can simply select their commodity to find information and learn about any 2022 program updates for the commodities they grow.

The Malivoire Wine Company, nestled among prime, maturing, sustainably farmed vineyards on Niagara’s Beamsville Bench, has been awarded “Winery of the Year” at the 2021 National Wine Awards of Canada (the 20th Anniversary of these awards).
It is such a great outcome for a winery long beloved by Ontario wine enthusiasts as a go-to for bright, elegant and energetic wines that capture Niagara’s spirit. And among the winemaking community, few are as well-liked and respected as winemaker Shiraz Mottiar (and no, Shiraz is not a stage name).
The victory is well earned. The incredible haul of 17 medals at the Nationals spans their repertoire, with Platinum medals for Le Coeur Gamay 2020, Bisous Rosé Sparkling and a new red blend of cabernet franc and gamay called Analog Demo Series 2020 clinching the victory.
On November 11, 2021, Canada’s federal, provincial, and territorial (FPT) Ministers of Agriculture wrapped up their annual conference by issuing the “Guelph Statement”.
Ministers agreed on the sustainable agriculture approach needed to help shape the next policy framework, which includes environmental, social and economic considerations in all priority areas. The following five priority areas for the next framework: (1) climate change and the environment; (2) science, research and innovation; (3) market development and trade; (4) building sector capacity and growth; and (5) resiliency and public trust.
Ministers also agreed to continue to improve the suite of business risk management (BRM) programs to make them timely, equitable, and easy to understand, while supporting the competitiveness and sustainability of the sector.
Additional progress was made during the conference on other key areas, including labour, African swine fever, Animal Health Canada, trade and market access, regulatory priorities (including interprovincial trade and the Canadian Plant Health Council), retail fees, and mental health.
For more information, please consult the associated Backgrounder.
The Government of Ontario has filed regulations to modernize Ontario’s beverage alcohol legal framework. The new legal framework will come into effect on November 29, 2021. Some of the key changes are outlined below:
For further details, see the AGCO's news bulletin HERE and/or the LCBO's update HERE.
The government is still reviewing additional items as part of potential future modernizations to the Liquor Licence and Control Act, 2019.
