flag U.S. tariffs removed American wines from Canadian stores in 2025, boosting Canadian wine sales nationwide.

flag Canadian wine sales surged in Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec, and Nova Scotia after U.S. tariffs led to the removal of American wines from provincial liquor stores starting in March 2025. flag Ontario’s VQA sales rose over 56%, Quebec’s by 54.5%, and both British Columbia and Nova Scotia saw 19.5% increases, driven by strong consumer support for local products. flag Winemakers attribute the growth to strategic planning and shifting preferences, with red, white, rosé, icewine, and sparkling wines all seeing gains. flag Industry leaders hope the momentum will sustain even if U.S. wines return, while the upcoming Canadian Mutual Recognition Agreement—excluding alcohol—could boost interprovincial sales for smaller producers.
