Vancouver's city council has approved bylaw amendments to allow the sale of wine on shelves in certain grocery stores.
Mayor Ken Sim says in a statement the decision will make shopping more convenient and support British Columbia's wine industry.
He says council is excited that the city is finally joining other municipalities for the "enhanced" shopping experience.
Council approved the bylaw changes that will allow for the sales, as long as the stores are larger than 10-thousand square feet and have a provincial wine licence and local business licence.
