In a statement today the Premier of British Columbia David Eby announced his government’s response to President Donald Trump’s 25% tariff on all Canadian goods entering the United States with the exception of oil and gas products which will be subject to a 10% tariff.

This is a partial ban only applying to “red sate” liquor i.e. Those states that awarded electoral college votes to Trump in the last election.

Premier Eby stated, “We didn’t ask for this fight the president has brought to Canada and to British Columbia. I’ll tell you this — we’re not going to shrink from it.  

Effective immediately, BC Liquor Stores will be pulling all red-state liquor products off the shelf and will not order any more.”
