I’m more surprised that LCBO, the Beer Store, and weed shops are “essential”.
This shouldn't surprise anyone who is familiar with alcoholism. You cannot just cut off alcoholics from alcohol cold turkey without resulting in increase harm to families and increased pressure on the healthcare system. More, it's well understood as well that trying to cut off the supply of alcohol doesn't stop consumption, it just means that people consume more dangerous versions--again increasing pressure on the healthcare system.
