“The Distilled Spirits Council, an industry group, estimated exports of U.S. distilled spirits to Canada at $43.4 million over the first six months of 2025, down about 62% from the same period in 2024. Exports of American wine were about 67% lower, the group said, citing U.S. trade data.”

Good job, Canada! Keep your elbows up!

You won't find "american bourbon taste" exactly... But just like you wont find Scotch taste exactly.

They're different things, and learning to appreciate the good things in that diversity of style will only help you be happier in life... I love rye, it's not the same as canadian whiskey, irish whiskey or scotch whisky, but itnhas its place in my cupboard. I'm sure you can find a good Indian or Japanese bourbon-copy whiskey!

Yes, but many japanese whisky is based on scottish methods and has a similar style to scotch. It would be a decent replacement if scotland decided to declare war on canada...

We need whisky distilled from corn and aged in oak... Yes, you cant call it bourbon, but it's a better start than just trying to shoehorn rye whisky in as a replacement
