CHARLOTTETOWN, PEI – British Columbia Premier Christy Clark and
Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall agreed today to offer consumers in
both provinces greater choice and convenient access to locally
produced wine and craft spirits.
The agreement will lift barriers to consumers and enables free
trade, benefiting consumers and strengthening the Canadian wine and
craft distillers industries.
Once implemented, consumers in both provinces will be able to order
B.C. or Saskatchewan wines and craft spirits directly from
producers, and have them delivered to their doorstep.
“British Columbia is leading the way in modernizing liquor laws to
offer people more convenience and to strengthen our industry to
create jobs,” said Premier Clark. “This commitment with Saskatchewan
is a great next step that builds momentum for free trade with other
provinces.”
