N.B. government looks to knock down alcohol trade barriers with legislation amendment
- New Brunswick's Liberal government introduced amendments to the Liquor Control Act, allowing residents to purchase alcohol directly from specific provinces and territories, and bringing liquor into the province without limits on personal exemption.
- The amendments also aim to help New Brunswick producers sell alcohol directly to other provinces, impacting interprovincial trade.
- The government forecasts a $549-million deficit for the 2025-26 fiscal year, attributing financial strain to tariffs from the United States, with $50 million set aside to mitigate these effects.
- Premier Susan Holt stated that residents desire access to B.C. Wines as much as British Columbians enjoy craft beer from New Brunswick.
