What are the authorized sale hours for alcohol in grocery stores?

8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.
10:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m.
11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.

The correct answer is: 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.

The authorized sale hours for alcohol in grocery stores are from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. This timeframe aligns with the regulations set by the provincial government, which dictate when alcohol can be legally sold to ensure responsible consumption and to comply with local laws regarding retail operations. Choosing this answer reflects an understanding of the balance between providing access to alcohol while maintaining certain restrictions to promote safe drinking habits and community standards. Other options might either start selling alcohol too early in the morning or end the sales too late at night, which would not comply with the regulatory framework guiding alcohol sales in grocery establishments. This proper window helps ensure that the sale of alcohol is managed in a way that supports public health and safety.
