Ontario Premier Orders Stores To Yank American Booze

“Every year, LCBO sells nearly $1 billion worth of American wine, beer, spirits and seltzers. Not anymore. Starting Tuesday, we’re removing American products from LCBO shelves.

“As the only wholesaler of alcohol in the province, LCBO will also remove American products from its catalogue so other Ontario-based restaurants and retailers can’t order or restock U.S. products.

“There’s never been a better time to choose an amazing Ontario-made or Canadian-made product. As always, please drink responsibly.” – Ontario Premier Doug Ford, posting today to X.

LCBO = Liquor Control Board of Ontario.
