Members of the B.C. General Employees Union (BCGEU) have escalated its strike action on Tuesday, shutting down government warehouses.
The strike is now in its fourth week.
Picket lines have gone up at B.C. alcohol and cannabis distribution centres, closing the facilities.
It is expected that liquor and cannabis stores won’t see much of an impact for a few weeks, but the hospitality industry is expected to see an impact almost immediately.
