Fucking deep cut ๐
I am but a lone Canadian, but I'll not buy a single American product, especially not from red states, until Tangerine Palpatine leaves office or dies, whichever happens first. We make fucking fantastic whiskey right here in Quebec.
Tangerine Palpatine hahah I'm gonna steal that
Please do!
I'm gonna steal it too. K?
It would be an honour, professor.
Imitation IS the highest form of flattery.
And flattery, as they say, will get you everywhere.
Two in the thoughts, one in the prayers.
That's just fucking glorious. Have some Lemmy Gold.
Im pretty sure insulting our PM and threatening to annex us is worse but what do I knowโฆ
That wasn't Jack Daniel's! That was just their owners, their customers, Tennessee's politicians, their voters, other red states...
Right? Gotta love these fuckers who only see the money side of this. The potato dick wants to occupy our communities and pillage our natural resources, and this shit stain thinks not being allowed to sell his rotten corn juice in out territory is a step to far?
We know he voted for this menace. All of these wastes of carbon did. This is what he voted for.

"wow, if ain't those the consequences of my own actions".
Maybe Jack outta have a talk with his boy Trump about why it happened.
Exactly!
we deserve it tho. if you're gonna be dumb, you got to be tough
That's how I build my DnD fighters.
You're the ones with the money.
Me sowing: ha ha hell yes
Me reaping:
They only have Trump to blame
They also have the Project 2025 authors and the rest of the Republican Party to blame as well.
Republican voters*
I don't care if they were duped, hoodwinked, brainwashed, lied to, conned, scammed, whatever. They need to take some fucking responsibility.
It says right in the article, "Canada accounts for 1% of the sales..." So I'm not one to shit on good news but I don't think thats a problem for them. But that's just Jack Daniel's. Across the whole spirits, liquors, and wines industry definitely will add up.
If that's true, why are they bitching?
That has real vibes of, "I don't care if you break up with me, I have hundreds of girls ready to date me. Wait! Come back!"
Because imaginary line must go up no matter what.
It's a terrible whiskey anyway. Go for a good Scottish or Irish single malt.
Bourbons have their place, you can't really make an old fashioned with a scotch .. I mean you can .. but you shouldn't. That said you shouldnt use Jack Daniels for one either.
Eh, Jack isn't really a bourbon. It's made with a starter but that's still not really a bourbon. That would be Jim. I don't particularly care for either, but when I was drinking, I preferred a good Irish or Scottish neat.
Occasionally I liked a cocktail with Cointreau, Tequila and lime on the rocks. I forget what it was called.
Iโm staying out of the whiskey war, butโฆ

This is just a margarita on the rocks, sometimes called a classic margarita. ๐
Thanks. You know American establishments often have their own names. I've had them made with Triple Sec and without any liquor so I really didn't recall since it's not in my priorities. But Cointreau tastes better than Triple Sec,imo.

Literally could not care less what Jack thinks about us doing what we must.
I don't know the guy's politics, and I don't care to know them, but if you have a super generic, easily replaceable export, you should avoid presidents who fuck around, because you'll be the one who finds out.
If you're pissed, put your influence against Trump and his horseshit tariffs. What was a disproportionate response was Canada doing nothing wrong, and America putting tariffs on their goods.
suck my dick jackie boy
Removing American products had very little to do with tariffs. It started after Trump threatened to invade Canada.
