Ontario and British Columbia have announced a ban on American liquor in response to escalating tariffs between the US and Canada. Premier Doug Ford and Premier David Eby have instructed local liquor stores to remove American products as a form of protest against the tariff policies enforced by President Donald Trump.

The Premier of Canadian province of British Columbia, David Eby, called on residents to stop buying liquor from U.S. “red” states and said it was removing American alcohol brands from government store shelves as a response to the tariffs.

With over 60 per cent of all wild B.C. seafood sold in the U.S. — half a billion dollars worth — tariffs imposed by President Trump could devastate the industry.
