B.C. removes all U.S. liquor from store shelves: Trump can ‘keep his watery beer’

B.C. Premier David Eby says all U.S. liquor products will be removed from B.C. liquor stores.

Previously, it was only liquor from red states, but Eby said on Monday that will now change.

“It was about a week ago, we announced taking liquor products and other products made in Republican states off the shelf here at the liquor store and at all of our public liquor stores across the province,” Eby said.

“Since then, we have seen a threat of additional tariffs on the dairy industry. An investigation into our lumber industry by the president, with the aim of adding even more tariffs and disturbing articles in the New York Times and other places about the president threatening to redraw our borders and pursue ********* water.”

Eby added that if U.S. President Donald Trump is so interested in ********* water then B.C. is going to help him out by letting him “keep his watery beer.”

“We’re doing this for a couple of reasons. One is to respond to the escalating threats that we’re seeing from the United States. The other is to recognize the feeling that many British Columbians have now. When we look at American products, we don’t even want to see them on the shelf anymore.”

On Thursday, Eby said British Columbia will pass legislation allowing it to tax U.S. trucks transiting the province to Alaska.

The measure will be included in a legislative package that Eby said will also include changes to eliminate interprovincial trade barriers and to give the government “flexibility” to respond to Trump’s executive orders.

Eby made the announcement as news broke that Trump was, once again, pausing 25 per cent tariffs on some ********* goods for another month.

Eby said that would not change the province’s response.

“The tariffs are on, the tariffs are off, the threats, orders rescinded, put in place — it’s all a deliberate tactic to weaken our resolve,” Eby said.

“We are not going to accept these continual threats, this continued uncertainty. We are going to stand up for Canadians. This is unacceptable.”

This story will be updated following Eby’s press conference at 10:30 a.m.
