Businesses forced to change plans amid New Year’s Eve liquor sales restrictions
KAMLOOPS — People will be ringing in the new year a bit more quietly this year.
B.C. residents have been urged not to gather in large groups this evening, but to celebrate the new year within household bubbles.
In an effort to restrict the transmission of COVID-19 this evening (Dec. 31), Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry has issued a ban on the sale of alcohol beginning at 8 p.m. The latest order has caused a stir among those who sell and serve alcohol.
