B.C. puts a cork on wine fundraisers | CTV British Columbia News: A B.C. liquor law banning charities from auctioning off donated wine has left some philanthropists with a sour taste in their mouths.
The law came to light when the Belfry Theatre in Victoria was denied a Special Occasion License for its annual wine fundraiser.
Organizers received a letter from the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch informing them that B.C.’s “laws and policies expressly prohibit organizations from soliciting bottles of liquor from individuals to be auctioned for charity.”
