The horror , no longer able to buy week American piss ( beer ) .
Thankfully, there is more to alcohol than beer, & hopefully the market to replace American alcohol on Canadian shelves will open to Mexico with a dramatic increase in trade there…. Because there’s all kinds of interesting Mexican liquors that we just can’t get out here on the prairies.

As a drinker of Jim Beam and Jack Daniels, this will hurt. Good news is I am no longer much of a drinker. I support this move.

Fans in Calgary and Ottawa NHL games booed the American national anthem. I intend to sit during it and not sing in future games.

Drink Canadian during the anthem. Your forbears were our enemies. If anybody gives you any shit and demands you "show respect," turn around, drop trou, and show 'em that.

BC is ding the same. 15 second clip on the news this AM of BCLCB employee clearing US booze off the shelves.
Didn't say what they planned to do with it. Pay to warehouse it? Pretty sure they can't send it back.
I believe in Ontario vendors don't get paid until their product sells.

Might be the same in B.C.?

What Canada can rationalize about not buying USA alcohol is that USA and Donnie can use this booze to keep their population drunk, and then old Donnie can do more things illegal without the public knowing it. Also a higher number of Americans will die from alcohol poisoning, taking the heat off the deaths from fentanyl, and old Donnie can hope more Democrats die than republicans, so he can get even without his plan getting out in the public.

So what's Trudeau's excuse for wanting to decrim fentanyl? 'Cuz he's just such a swell dude? From 2016-2024 an average of 15 Canadians per day died from opioid overdoses. And even though the US is ranked #1 in that category Canadians don't have much to sneer at them about as we sit at #3.
And while one would have to intake a significant amount of alcohol to accidentally delete themselves, it only takes 2mg of fentanyl to end your existence.

Legalizes weed, de facto decrims the use of pretty much every other drug all while banning firearms left, right and center. You'd think he's trying to keep everyone high and /or defenseless for a reason.
See? I can do crackpot conspiracy theories too but at least mine makes some sense.
