American alcohol has become a flashpoint in the Canada-U.S. trade war, with President Donald Trump citing provincial liquor bans among the justifications for new tariffs on Canadian goods.

Preetika Joshi, assistant professor at �鶹�� Desautels, says removing American products from store shelves sends a stronger retaliatory message than imposing tariffs. “When you refuse to sell it, there is no sale, so that’s a bigger hit,” Joshi explains.

Amid rising economic tensions between the U.S. and Canada, Assistant Professor Preetika Joshi warns that President Donald Trump’s threat to impose 100 per cent tariffs could trigger far‑reaching consequences on both sides of the border. Joshi notes that while the move is framed as a deterrent against Canada serving as a conduit for Chinese goods, the economic damage would not be one‑sided.

When the province of Ontario ran an anti-tariff advertisement that featured voice-over from a 1987 speech by US President Ronald Reagan, it hit a little too close to home for current President Donald Trump. Trump threatened additional tariffs on Canada and demanded the ad campaign end. “If this was a sitcom, we’d be laughing, but it’s not,” says Preetika Joshi, Assistant Professor of Accounting at �鶹�� Desautels.
