I hunted bears there in the early 80s. The owner’s of the place I stayed at always wanted me to bring a bottle of spirits for them. Duties or something, who knows. Bet there pissed now.
Back in the 80's the Canadians wanted U.S. Whiskey and Americans wanted Canadian beer, That was when Brador and Export were something like 5-6% alcohol and U.S. beer was 4. I forget the reasoning around the Whiskey.
