Seriously, do it. Go get your Jack (bleah), your Aviation gin, your California wines, whatever you want.
Every store with those items on the shelf has already bought the products from AGLC. They can’t ship it back, and they can’t recover their costs except through sales.
The AGLC is no longer buying booze from the US, which means every bottle available is money already sunk - and for small stores, it can be a lot of money.
So go to your local shop, buy what you want, and tell the owner that you know it’s not on them to throw away their purchased inventory.
don’t buy american anything anytime.
weird thing to be shilling
They aren’t wrong, though. The US based companies have already been paid for the product, so buying it at this point will only benefit the Canadian businesses.
That is, if the business isn’t importing more.
