Here's what Canadian provinces are doing with all the US liquor they pulled off shelves

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwyp9g7p5p9o.amp

Canadian provinces have a strange problem: What to do with millions of dollars worth of American alcohol, pulled from the shelves in anger over US tariffs and now gathering dust in stock rooms? .... ..

Only two Canadian provinces – Alberta and Saskatchewan – are still selling US booze.

In Canada, alcohol sales are largely controlled by provincial governments, ... Only Alberta and Saskatchewan have a fully-privatised liquor retail system. .. they will sell their remaining inventory—worth C$17.4m—and donate proceeds to local charities. .... ..

The booze boycotts began in February after Trump imposed sweeping tariffs on Canadian goods. Most are now exempt thanks to a long-standing North American free trade agreement, but sector-specific tariffs on metals, lumber and automotives remain in place... ..

Exports to Canada have dropped by 85% and have also declined to other markets, including the UK and the EU.

In a statement to the BBC on Monday, Mr Swonger said American liquor producers hope that both Canada and the US can address their trade concerns, and that "our products can return to Canadian retail shelves as soon as possible".

Not likely that the trade issues are going to be addressed anytime soon (at least until the current administration is gone) unless the Supreme Court steps in and rules them illegal (which they are in their current form, bypassing Congress).

Canada needs to find friendlier and more reliable trading partners.

I advocate Canada joining the European Union (if that is possible).  Currently, they're a lot closer to Canadian values than the U.S.
