Federal government moves to lift alcohol trade restrictions, urges provinces to do the same GlobeBusiness

The issue has rankled consumers for decades and was forced under a media spotlight a year ago when a New Brunswick man lost a five-year court battle to buy cheap beer in neighbouring Quebec.

LeBlanc said Tuesday that Canadians have been frustrated by provincial and territorial trade restrictions for too long. “The proposed legislative amendments would remove the only remaining federal barrier to trade in alcohol, and the onus will be on provincial and territorial governments to change their own regulations, paving the way for direct-to-consumer alcohol sales from across Canada,” LeBlanc said in a statement.

Andrea Stairs, who manages eBay in Canada and Latin America, welcomed the federal move but said “the hard work now turns to provincial governments.”“Interprovincial trade of alcohol is an opportunity to unlock economic prosperity by enabling Canada’s to trade more freely,” she said in a statement.

Federal government looks to tighten loophole that encourages irregular border crossingsA provision in this year’s omnibus budget bill would prevent anyone who has made a refugee claim in certain other countries from making another claim in Canada 'Irregular border crosses'? They are deliberately not going to a border cross to declare their entry. They are ILLEGAL. The correct term is “illegal border crossings”. Just stop with the pc garbage Why do u say “irregular” when they are illegal. And if they were irregular rather than illegal why tighten the border crossings. Doesn’t make any logical sense.
