The [Ontario Wine Council](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ontario-international-airport) has created the Pairs Perfectly campaign to give customers a voice when it comes to private wine stores. The [Canadian government](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/national-advocacy-campaign) currently buys and sells liquor in one single organization, the [LCBO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/readytoserve-cocktail), which is a different system than those found in other provinces. The Pairs Perfectly campaign encourages people to stand up for change.

Although it targets voters and consumers on a more serious note, the Pairs Perfectly campaign interacts with them on an important issue that could affect their shopping experience in a big way. Hillary Dawson, present of the Ontario Wine Council, says, “Why this option is important is because it is one that truly embraces the principles that the consumer wants--they want a range of shopping experiences in addition to those at the LCBO, delivered in a socially responsible way, and in a way that allows the government and the LCBO to grow its contribution to the economy without building more stores."
