“The Distilled Spirits Council, an industry group, estimated exports of U.S. distilled spirits to Canada at $43.4 million over the first six months of 2025, down about 62% from the same period in 2024. Exports of American wine were about 67% lower, the group said, citing U.S. trade data.”

Good job, Canada! Keep your elbows up!

and thinking alcohol is bad for you.

I mean there is a strong scientific consensus on that.

I can also recommend everyone to say goodbye to alcohol. Alcohol free beers can be quite good nowadays. The only taste i miss sometimes is a Whiskey where you can taste the smokiness but it isn't too strong yet. Still not worth the negative health effects.

I am sad that I missed the trend where kombucha was stocked at a bunch of bars (or so I'm lead to believe). Non-alcoholic beer is getting better all the time, but the bar that stocks a good, strong tasting ginger kombucha would get my business. Love that shit.

...makes a note to try and connect his local haunt with the kombucha brewery 15 minutes down the road, as it sort of fits the vibe they are going for these days anyway

Helps that Kurzgesagt just came out with a video all about how there's no amount of daily alcohol intake that's not bad for you.

It turns out that all of those "studies" saying that a glass of wine or a glass of beer a day is actually healthy for you was all bullshit.
