Dan Albas

Conservative
“I am presenting a petition to support my bill. It lets Canadian alcohol makers ship their products directly to people anywhere in the country using Canada Post or other delivery companies. Small businesses need this help because the United States is blocking our goods.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, I rise on behalf of the good people of Okanagan Lake West—South Kelowna to present e-petition 7258, in support of my private member’s bill, Bill C-262 in order to allow beer, wine and spirits produced by Canadian producers to be shipped by Canada Post or other trusted carriers to anywhere in the country. This is in recognition of the work done by Ron Kubek of Lightning Rock Winery in Summerland. As I mentioned earlier, President Trump has put a ban on Canadian importations. Now is the time for the government to act and to help out producers such as Ron Kubek and all the great small family wineries, distilleries and breweries across this great country.
