BC Bans US Liquor: Trump’s ‘Watery Beer’ Gets the Boot
British Columbia Premier David Eby announced the removal of all U.S. liquor products from provincial stores, escalating the province’s response to perceived economic threats from the United States. This decision follows previous actions targeting goods from specific U.S. states and comes amidst concerns regarding potential tariffs on B.C.’s dairy and lumber industries, along with broader geopolitical tensions. The province will also implement legislation taxing U.S. trucks en route to Alaska and introduce measures to address interprovincial trade barriers. Eby emphasized B.C.’s determination to stand firm against what he characterized as destabilizing tactics from the U.S. government.
