I live in Niagara and I'll be the first to say that vqa wines are not all that.

But I'd rather get a vqa, or other Canadian wine, over supporting the USA and their tariffs.

They're certainly not bad, but they're also not "all that" either. I'll happily keep buying Canadian. I'll probably keep that up after the tariffs because I like supporting our economy, instead of sending all my dollars over to the USA for the same thing we can make here.

I mean, we have the option to buy the table wine from a Canadian winery and an occasional fancy bottle from somewhere in Europe. Keep it up!

Best wine I have ever had was decades ago, it was called Unity Wine. It was a joint venture between a BC Oganagan wine producer and a Niagara producer, where they blended their products. Here is one blend. https://www.cellartracker.com/m/wines/107991
