    Laut Carney hängt die Aufhebung des Alkoholverbots in den USA davon ab, dass Trump die Angriffe auf Stahl, Autos und Bauholz beendet

      exactly. you can’t go into negotiations with parties not honouring the current agreement. I bet Carney can get the remaining Premiers on board with US alcohol being on the shelf if the tariffs are returned to what the existing agreement dictates. Just understand that when US liquor is back on the shelves in every province, don’t expect sales to return to the previous levels. That’s not happening anytime soon regardless of the international agreements.

      We can even call it a ‚ceasefire‘ while the agreement is negotiated and Trump will get to claim he’s stopped 18 wars.

      I know he has to make statements, but he knows, and most of us know, that negotiating with the United States is an absolute waste of time until the end of the current regime.

      Trump will bargain in bad faith, make unreasonable demands, and if a deal is struck, renege on it immediately and then gaslight his moronic supporters.

      What’s the point.

      Honestly I think it should just never be lifted at this point. If we are going to continue selling suffering at all it should at least be locally made.

      Okay? This is just a nothing burger of a statement to people who don’t get how it works here.

      The fed has no control over what the provinces buy and the provinces will continue to not buy for cheap political points.

      As long as Carney keeps playing hardball Im hood with thus stance. PP would have rolled over and capitulated on day one. We got what theworld needs and we can sell what and to whom we please. It would be great tonhave a stable relationship with the U.S. of A. But they’ve got Captain bone spurs aka Mr Unstable at the helm. Do what ya gotta do.

      There is no point in negotiating with this administration. Their whole MO is getting one over on others and as soon as a concession is made they’ll back out of the deal.

      The best part of the liquor ban is the damage is already done. Booze, esp in Canada, has a pretty elastic demand brand-to-brand (bourbon fanboy attack inbound notwithstanding; rye and scotch are infinitely better but thats not the discussion here). Consumers have shifted their habits for about a year now, and the damage to American brands is, if not permanent, at the very least extremely significant.

      Lifting the ban doesn’t immediately change consumer trends. Drinkers have either got back into good Canadian or other international brands (Laphroaig is goat-status folks) or tried them and had to deal with them and kept it up. American brands are hurt and its Trump’s fault. So much for core convervative ideas like free enterprise…
