St.Catharines Boston Pizza liquor licence suspended after fatal 2023 crash

AGCO has issued 60-day licence suspension

The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO)  has issued a Notice of Proposal for a 60-day liquor sales licence suspension of the Boston Pizza on Ontario Street in St. Catharines.

The AGCO has reason to believe the licence holder is responsible for several violations of the Liquor Licence and Control Act and its Regulations, contributing to a fatal vehicle crash. 

The Commission says the restaurant continued to serve alcohol to a number of patrons after they showed signs of intoxication the night of December 17th.

It says the customers then left by car and were involved in a single vehicle crash that killed a passenger.

The commission says it found the restaurant responsible for several violations of the Liquor Licence and Control Act, including supplying alcohol to people who are or appear intoxicated.
