Which provinces haven't pulled American liquor off the shelves? Is that all Alberta sales or something?

Crazy that Alberta still stocks US products but won't import wines or beer etc. From the provinces in the country.
Albertans are so cucked, they'd give away their own province to America
Well that's unkind.
The party the idiots elected would do so willingly, thinking the land goes with them and that they'd get to become Americans.
But the rest of them? I think most of them would be surprised to learn it happened at all. There's a lot - a LOT - of low-key racism in the province, but most people try to ignore the news and its distressing facts so they can get the crop in or get to their 2-hour minimum wage shift on time.
Canadian "social drinker" got more back bone than most when it comes to exercising their economic power.
Excellent!
Those numbers are still too low. Needs to be 100%.
Why do we care so much about US liquor? Nobody talks about boycotting US soft drinks and candy.
Speak for yourself.
I mean, I am doing those things. I'm also just curious as to why we're so focused on alcohol. It's probably because it's one of the things where it's easy to find non-American alternatives. But maybe because there's a lot of Coca Cola bottling locally in Canada people don't care?
Either way, I've been looking around for Canadian candy to give away for Halloween. Hawkins Cheesies and Rockets might be it.
Yes. Believe it or not, the coke and pepsi being made in Canada makes people feel significantly less pressure to boycott them. Believe it or not, this makes sense when you think about how most people make decisions and the factors involved in those decisions.
Being smug about it doesn't change it.
Hi neighbors to the north!
Thanks for applying pressure. Jeep it up and I love you guys!
Many of those distillery owners are under the impression that Canadians want and need their product, and will resume buying once the Trump regime is gone.
As though we will simply forgive and forget.
For them, both sides were the same. Until now, no one called them on their bullshit.
As by design by Trump Putin.
Longterm destabilization by fracturing America's closest allies was an obvious goal. Still, no country can build a longterm plan knowing the US can go to shit every 4 years. The volatility is off the charts. So systemic change needs to occur to prevent this shit.
Well, well, well, it looks like we're faced with the consequences of our own actions. How dare they!
"We insulted our best customer, telling them they weren't buying enough and we were sick of their free loading and that we might confiscate their house. For some reason they're not coming to our shop anymore. Clearly they're being unreasonable."
Canadians got the spirit... wait maybe they didn't
Oh they got it alright. Just from someone other than the US
I do genuinely hope theyβre enjoying all the great European and Asian spirits that us unitedstatesians are having to pay through the nose for nowadays. And I absolutely do encourage Canadians and anyone else to boycott American shit as much as possible. A lot of this is happening because our citizenry is, on average, abjectly stupid. I strongly encourage you to collectively educate us.
Ohh wow... as if people have a choice and they can actually use it!
At least those distilleries now have the supplies to get as tanked as their revenues.
Took me a minute to realize this was American alcoholic drinks, and not the cigarette brand American Spirit.
I've got spirit, yes I do! I've got spirit, how bout you?!
Good. With the amount we'll all need to drink to get through the next few years, it's better if we have more liquor available domestically.
And at least it's one of the industries where America actually makes things still. But I bet the glass bottles are all imported, so we'll need to fix that.
Too bad domestic prices are only going up.
It's not just tariffs. Tell Donald the Hutt to quit his 51st state bullshit and maybe in a generation and plenty of ass kissing, Canadians will forgive you.
