Their is no official booze ban in Canada. While some products were eventually removed from the shelves this was more a citizens grassroots action, not an official act.

There is. But it’s provincial and not in all provinces. Fed gov has no jurisdiction.

No, it will be a grassroots action only if people leave US booze on the shelves.

Do you see empty space in the shelves for the US booze. Local stores have no obligation to remove stock and fill it with US stock. Further in Ontario they already have a large catalogue of special order items not stocked in all stores.
