Bill 205: The Milk Prices Review Amendment Act

This bill primarily affects milk retailers in Manitoba — grocery stores, convenience stores, and any other businesses that sell fluid milk directly to consumers. If the Council sets minimum or maximum retail milk prices, those prices must now be publicly posted in a clear, easy-to-understand format. For a retailer, this means the price rules governing what they can charge for milk at the till will be more transparent and accessible, reducing any ambiguity about compliance. The bill applies regardless of business size, from a small corner store to a large grocery chain, as long as they sell fluid milk in Manitoba.
