The fate of alcohol imported from the U-S is still up in the air in Newfoundland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Newfoundland and Labrador Liquor Commission says they have 3-point-2 million dollars worth of American booze in their inventory, but has not yet made a decision about what to do with the stockpile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nova Scotia and Manitoba have begun to sell off their American alcohol and donate the profits to charity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The province removed all U-S products from liquor store shelves earlier this year in response to U-S President Donald Trump\u2019s trade war.

The Nova Scotia Liberals say Iain Rankin will take over as the party’s interim leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The party has just two sitting members — Rankin and Derek Mombourquette. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rankin was the Liberal premier up until the 2021 election that saw the Progressive Conservatives take power. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rankin issued a letter today saying the P-C government needs to implement a comprehensive economic strategy to deal with their record 1.2 billion-dollar deficit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
