Canadian boycott of U.S. spirits in trade war hurts broader alcohol sales, analysis says

July 22, 2025

Canadian provinces’ boycott of U.S. spirits amid a trade dispute with the United States has caused a sharp drop in sales of American imports, as well as other imported and domestic spirits across the nation, a Canadian liquor trade group said on Tuesday.

Sales of U.S. spirits in Canada dropped 66.3 per cent between March 5, when provinces announced they would stop carrying the products in retail stores, and the end of April, according to an analysis by Spirits Canada.
