What happened
The Nova Scotia Crown-run alcohol retailer stated that it sold approximately $1. successful quarter's worth of U.S. alcohol inventory, which ran from April 1 to June 28. The company reported that as of August 17, $1.5 million of the original U.S. alcohol stock remained. This sale was part of a response to the trade war with the U.S., which led to the company stopping purchases in January 2025 and pulling the product from shelves in March 2025.

Why it matters
The initial retail value of the pulled U.S. alcohol was $14,896,652, comprising over 600,000 units. The company resumed selling the warehoused product in December, with the proceeds dedicated to community food groups. This led to an announcement in April that 315 organizations would receive grants totaling $5.3 million.
