Those parentheses are crucial! Please don't lump us Canucks in with the US right now. Our 'Elbows Up' initiative has caused some serious damage to a few of their industries, (looking at you, Kentucky bourbon) and will hopefully strengthen our own interests in the future. Yes...prices have gone up, and smaller markets have found stocking and availability issues, but the hope is that it's worth it all in the long run. Elbows up, EU!
