This stupid move, plus the nasty fact that they recalled bottles due having GLASS inside of them? No thanks no more #CrownRoyal in this house. 🚫⛔️ #BuyCanadian

Baileys - Coole Swan is Irish and tastes incredible.
Smirnoff - Lots of Canadian vodka options
I'll be okay 👍

in reply to Jace • • •What the actual hell? They really want to alienate Canadian customers, don't they?
I've always preferred Wiser's anyway, but shades of Heinz abandoning Leamington. At least Heinz is an American company. And bottled in the USA will NOT be an appealing selling point in liquor stores. They haven't been paying attention to the empty shelves that used to have American products on it? Maybe they sell more to Americans, so don't really care.

in reply to Carolyn • • •@CStamp I would think given they have multiple bottling plants in Canada that will remain open that product sold in Canada will be bottled here.

in reply to ZenHeathen • • •@ZenHeathen @CStamp @Chigaze here is a list of all of the Diageo brands. 🇨🇦, we know what to do #ElbowsUp #BoycottDiageo.
*for Champagne lovers, there are several wineries in Ontario who make bubbly that’s as good as or better than most of what Moet et Chandon (j.v. between Diageo and LVMH) produces. Some of those include: Westcott Estate Vineyards, Hidden Bench, Mason Vineyards, and Honsburger Estate Vineyards (those are our favourites). #BuyCanadian #SparklingWine
**Beer lovers, please share some of our great #CanadianBeers that we could be drinking instead of anything produced by Diageo

in reply to Carolyn • • •@CStamp @Lynnd @ZenHeathen @Chigaze My rule is: if you want wine go to SAQ. If you want beer (local) check the grocery store (usually Metro or IGA, less so for Weston) or even the dépanneurs (some are treasures).
I have never lived in Quebec and not be able to get beer at the dep or grocery store.

in reply to ZenHeathen • • •@ZenHeathen @CStamp @Lynnd @Chigaze We have wine at the grocery store too, and some other light stuff including cider.
But I don't recommend grocery store wine, hence SAQ. Great selection of wine from Europe.
