e-1214 (Alcoholic beverages)

E-petition
Initiated by Austin Caron from Black Diamond, Alberta

Original language of petition: English

Petition to the Government of Canada

Whereas:
  • Canada has thousands of quality craft beers from coast to coast to coast. Canadian brewers should have the right to sell their products anywhere in Canada without government interference. Consumers also deserve better and eliminating internal trade barriers will provide greater choice to all Canadians;
  • These outdated and unnecessary laws are stifling Canada’s economic growth and hurting Canadian small business. Eliminating these unnecessary trade barriers will drastically improve Canada’s economy. Freer trade amongst the provinces and territories will grow the Canadian economy and will create jobs; and
  • Eliminating trade barriers between the provinces is good for our economy, is good for business, and is good for Canada.
We, the undersigned, Citizens of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to work with the provinces and ensure alcohol will be added to the new Canadian Free Trade Agreement by Summer 2018.
