Luckily here in the UK there is plenty of Irish whiskey you can buy without having to go for an American brand Trying to avoid any companies owned by those in the USA. Which is difficult but is doable

FAFO
No big loss. Nobody who actually likes whiskey drinks that pisswater.
😂 it’s vile- we have better rye whiskey in 🇨🇦
I prefer Canadian whiskey. Used to be my drug of choice.
Sales fell 62%? Not good enough!
And the company that owns Jack Daniels supported the Russian owned child rapist. Got what they voted for. Good. Canadian whisky is a 💯 times better.
There’s lots I don’t understand about this year. But why we think it is a good idea to make Canada mad at us may be at the top of the list.
We're not done yet.
I think about the cost of drinking in America now. It used to be cheaper. Go to the bar and hang out with folks. Jack Daniel’s cost about 3-4 dollars a bottle to produce. The cost has gone up and up on whiskey and beer as multinationals have bought up brewers and distilleries. It’s all greed.
DJT does not care about anything but pocketing the Tariffs! Anyone that thinks this tariff money isn’t going to him and his enablers is out to lunch and naive! Trump knows what an effing tariff is! It is his followers that don’t know how to read and figure it out on their own!
The only thing Trump accomplishes is to hurt people.
Even if the tariffs are lifted, the 🇨🇦 boycott of 🇺🇸 goods + tourism will not end. The annexation threats, dismissal of our sovereignty, identity, culture combined with the economic damage done by your President is unforgivable. He said the 🇺🇸 doesn’t need anything from 🇨🇦. Well… enjoy the nothing.
A decaying mentally incompetent criminal runs the country
I am in the UK and have stopped buying US products and I am not the only one. I look forward to the day when I can drink Jack Daniels and Bud again (not in the same glass, mind). More power to you all.
I'm the same I think twice about many products now. I like Americans, I find them friendly, polite and warm hearted and I look forward to holidaying there again in the future.
Ditto I stopped buying Jack Daniels & Southern Comfort Alsio avoiding Coors brands
Who drinks that shit anyway?
I know my fellow 🇨🇦 can do much, much better than that. Sorry, we'll try harder, eh? 🤠
substack.com/@sugarrhi/no...
Winning! 🙄🤦♀️
Pfffff 62%
they should move their business to Canada
The bourbon distilleries in KY have been screaming about the tariffs for months.
And none of them have figured out it's only partially the tariffs, and that being the least part. The weekly threats of invading are a wee bit more important, but none of them want to say that since it's easier to stir up their base pretending we're only upset about a little tax.
The sad part is that many of them voted for Trump in the first place.
🇨🇦 can do better than a decline of 62% - but it does make sense with about 30% of our population being traitorous Conservatives (Maple MAGA)
Elbows up! 🇨🇦 Canada is not playing!
Elbows up!
Crazy that it took this presidency to get Canadians to stop drinking the piss whiskey
As long as Trump keeps his aggressive stance towards Canada, I applaud Canadians for boycotting anything made in the U.S.
I don’t mean to sound like my head is in the sand saying this, but I hope Canada can recognize that we’re divided and given his approval ratings probably a majority of us now can’t stand Trump as president.
I recognize it but I don't really care. When Americans actually stand up and do what's needed to remove him rather than waiting for someone else to do it maybe I'll change my mind. For now the whole country can get fucked.
They mostly do, but I think we have to accept that he did get elected and they have to look after their own interests first. Even when (and if?) we get him out of office in 2028, the relationship between Canada and the U.S. will never be the same. 😞
As an Albertan who did not vote for the Trump-like premier currently ruling our province, just wanted to say I completely get where you're coming from. Hang in there & take care 👍
Here’s the thing: when the US military invades Canada again, that will not be good enough. So, kindly stop worrying about whether you’re one of the “good Germans” and get this dictator out for your own sakes as well as ours.
If the U.S. invades Canada, the “good Germans” will become part of the resistance.
Haven't seen much resistance from your military so far.
Anyone who would resist is keeping quiet or has already been purged.
That’s pretty cold comfort.
Lol there's too few of em or we wouldn't all be stuck in this Hellscape
No they won't, because they haven't so far.
Well, let’s hope we don’t have to find out.
“Hoping” is not going to cut it.
Well, keep some powder dry.
We did make threats in the 1950's. You chose to allow us to install radar stations instead of risking Ike ordering it done unilaterally. Canada kind of wanted them there anyway as part of NATO / NORAD.
youtu.be/wwHVRcH74gI?...
Fantasyland -- just like Reagan's Star Wars.
Okay…and? The US was not under a fascist regime at the time and we had a common enemy in Russia. Maybe we should have assumed the worst about the US right then but, alas, here we are.
The US isn't your enemy, except as a temporary agent of Putin / Russia. I know that 1,238 days is a really long time in the political realm, but we beg for patience. D̶o̶n̶a̶l̶d̶ ̶t̶R̶U̶m̶p̶ Vladimir Putin is actually unpopular here.
Germany wasn't Poland's enemy either, until it was.
Germany's path was clear before September, 1939. It took him 6 years to get there from his acquisition of power. tRUmp may bluster a lot, but he has a lot of work to do before he can go around waging arbitrary wars.
I don't see that as a refutation of the current zeitgeist that he is pushing. His discussions of forcing Canada annexation through fiscal or "other" means is being taken very seriously by our government.
And I’ve got to go do other stuff, but I just want to say that “the US isn’t your enemy”is really fucking patronizing in the circumstances. Whether we should have or not, we looked at the US like a sibling and it betrayed us with malicious intent.I’d like to know what you think an enemy would do.
What is the process by which the US extricates itself from being a “temporary agent of Russia”, pray tell? What exactly do you think is going to happen in 1,238 days? A free and fair election?
Ascension of a sane person to the presidency. In 408 days we'll elect sanity to Congress which will hogtie tRUmp. If the crazies continue to run Congress, it'll be serious SNAFU.
And if he sends weapons-carrying military to voting stations in blue areas across the country? What if they are given directives to confront voters? There are a huge number of issues with the path forward that Trump is intentionally sabotaging. A fair election is doubtful.
I don’t even know how you’re going to come back from the security breaches. We may as well assume Russia has full access to anything Trump does. And Russia has plans for Canada quite apart from the US regardless. So, having a “sane” US regime is a great start but only goes so far.
Well, if I win the presidency, everyone hired after Jan 19 of this year are on probation and likely terminated. Classified systems would need to be redone top to bottom. Classified info prior to the new security regime would have to be considered compromised. And that's off the top of my head. :(
Best of luck, but I’ve got to tell you it’s not looking so good from here.
I'm with Captn here. A lot of people south of the border (north, if you're in Windsor) do not understand that we don't trust US institutions to protect against military aggression. I'm from the US. So I have both perspectives. #ElbowsUp
You are very naive if you actually believe that. Why do you think the Republicans are trying to redraw the maps? You won’t get a chance for a fair election if this isn’t stopped ASAP. And most of your population & politicians aren’t doing anything to stop it.
"Again"? Canada wasn't a country when our revolutionary forces entered what is now Canada. Or, are you referring to @mmflint.bsky.social's movie: www.rottentomatoes.com/m/canadian_b...
War of 1812
I plead ignorance of the 1812 military campaigns. The only campaign I know about was this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CnP... Not exactly history. :)
And that was after the war had ended.
We burnt the White House
If I recall correctly, that was in a place that was never called Canada. We're arguing about when US troops made a hostile entrance into a place called, "Canada."
I’m not sitting here listing off every name Canada has ever used 🙄
In any event, Googling now, it seems the area was called "The Canadas" (upper and lower) at the time (1791 and later).
I did happen to remember that. "Oops."
This may come as a surprise but the former British colonies that formed Canada were nonetheless called “Canada” before 1867.
"revolutionary war" ≠ "civil war" The former was 1775 to 1782.
We know. Are you suggesting that post-Revolution, the US did *not* attempt to invade and annex Canadian territory? Several times?
Canada isn’t doing it to hurt Americans. They’re doing it to hurt one American.
Indeed. But even after he’s gone, there’s going to be long-period of hard work to heal this relationship. Same is true for all our NATO allies, especially Denmark.
I'm never buying American alcohol ever again. And same goes fir literally anything else I can get away with. And something I've learned over the past 6 months, it's a lot. 🤑
This 🇨🇦dian knows their are great American's. Unfortunately it will take a long time for us to recover any sort of trust. I do hope you are able to recover your country from the fascists.
We hope do too. It’s going to be a long struggle.
What say the Tennesseans who are all about a clown destroying their icon Jack Daniel’s brand? Do you even get it? Rhetorical question - unfortunately I know the answer!
Owning a MAGA feels pretty satisfying. Good luck to all the dumb dumbs losing their jobs because it’s liberals who kept them employed. Ya know. With our moneyzzz
We found better, local things to drink. Plus your "president" is a fascist pedophile. ♥ 🍁
America deserves every kick in ass we get!
FAFO 👍
FAFO.
Proves Canadians are heavy drinkers but not stupid to support a white supremacist
And you better believe that if it were at all easier to extricate modern American luxuries like Amazon, social media platforms and Uber--to name a few--from our day-to-day lives, we'd be doing that as well. The past decade has been an awakening of sorts for so many Canadians to the realization that-
so much of what we are is shackled to the idea of America. The bar has just been so low for a while now, it hasn't driven progress/innovation here at home and orange man has hit us with the tariff revelation stick, that magnificent aberration of a cursed & despicable man.
Almost every Canadian I know is avoiding purchasing US goods. We all have apps on our phones to verify the product’s origin.
What app you using?
O SCANada
There’s a good one called Maple Scan.
Awesome thx!
Trump is doing exactly the job that Putin hired him to do.
Fake. No way it fell only 62%. Must be a hair from 100%. How and why would any Canadian company buy it at all? American owned bars in Canada?
I don't know, I just saw a local pub with posters promoting Coors for a contest. I'm tempted to slap on "Coors Supports Project 2025" on the windows...
A lot of Coors products are actually brewed in Canada,thats why.
The company produces Canadian versions of Coors Light in Canada through its Molson Coors Canada division, so a Coors Light product found in Canada could be brewed there.
That doesn't negate the "this company gave money to the fascist regime and project 2025" part, though...
Personally, I've been boycotting Coors for decades, but i was just explaining how folk aren't trying to hurt made in Canada with their elbows up. Coors has been Nazi all along.
Coors is an easy product to boycott as there several hundred superior options. Maybe close to a thousand if you check out various local liquor depots that carry a multitude of microbrew options.
Alberta is not taking part in any aspect of the elbows up campaign. They might be buying more American shit just to own the Liberals
No one is buying US products.
Selling out your country comes with a high price tag .... live and learn or FAFO
At this point anything that puts pressure on Trump is a help to Americans who resist his lawless administration. Thank you and keep boycotting!
Great job Dumb Donald
And we deserve it.
You play with fire eventually you get burnt...no sympathy for JD or any other company that cosied up to TACO.
Go Canada!!! I'm sure several of our US billionaires are boohooing.
America first?, or was the whole slogan "Fuck over America first" ?
Thank you, Canada 🍁 We appreciate your support.
Tell Donald.
Woo hoo! Another American company destroying itself because of the great orange prick! Grow a pair or lose your business you stupid BBB assholes! Tik tok…
I haven't bought American alcohol including wine or beer at all this year. And I realized one thing: Canadian products are better anyway.
Elbows up and all, but 80%+ of American wine is from California, and we're most definitely on your side.
Jack Daniel's is pretty meh anyways, better off without it
Beer yes. Whiskey.....ummmmmm not really
Stick to Canadian products. US voters still don't connect the election to what's going on in the nation and around the world. The lesson needs to be a painful one. And whether Canadian whiskey or US bourbon is better is irrelevant. Elbows up! 🇨🇦
Just came here to agree and say Glyphosatan is in the beer.
American here, I understand and please carry on!! We, the ones who aren't a$$holes, do miss you, though!
I’m a US voter and I see the connection, as do millions of others like me.
77M don't. Glad you're an enlightened one. Sadly, nations rise and fall together. The US has a bill to pay.
Voter suppression is a huge factor and the election results were tampered with. I’m not saying that people shouldn’t boycott American brands, I’m just pointing out the fact that most Americans hate this shit and are being victimized. Our kids are being murdered in school. We’re suffering.
Is it a problem? Yes. Is that an excuse? No. Kids continue to die in the US because of the American voter. And I hate it. I'm sorry you're suffering, I'm profoundly sorry for the children and the families, but until Americans come together, we can all expect more of it.
Making Canada Healthy Again.
I'll drink to that.
Maybe that comp ay shouldn’t have hitched it wagon to a convict who has bankrupted multiple businesses. Jack Daniel’s sucks anyway.
Too bad, so sad. Americans can no longer afford to buy products - domestic or imported - and no one outside of the U.S. can be forced to buy the crap we make here, despite what the deranged orangutan in the Oval thinks. Way to Make America Great Again, you fucking imbecile.
I'm in Scotland, JD and all American products are off my shopping list until the fascists are out of power.
What?! Someone actually drinks Jack D? Someone with working taste buds? Maybe JD is (or was) the cheapest firewater out there, and dirt poor people drank it to reach oblivion.
Yeah Canada. Great job.
bsky.app/profile/brit...
Was just in Canada for a vacation. Didn't see a lot of American goods in the grocery store or at restaurants.
Washington wine exports to Canada have gone to 0%. As a winery owner here I didn't export, but my grower does, and now I have to compete with product to be exported dumped back on the domestic market. Obviously with the disruption domestic US wineries will go under. (We love Okanogan Vly wine, FYI)
Way to go, Kentucky 👍 Nothing like tanking your state’s economy to own the libs.
Trump is destroying AMERICAN distilleries. I've been screaming about this for MONTHS and no major media outlets took me seriously. More distilleries have filed bankruptcy in the past 5 months than EVER before in a full presidential term. Here's just the notable ones.
Ha ha ha. Serves the U.S. right.
They are real…
It's double good, stay sober!
No worries He'll intervene in the market again if necessary He's just a fickle autocrat who jumps from one position to another because he can't think straight
Heckuva job, Tennessee voters
ohs noes!
I buy Irish Whiskey! 🇺🇸🤡😢
It will never repair itself! We 🇨🇦 have very long memories.
Oh I bet those ceos voted trump they get what they voted for.
I mean Jim Beam and many other brands are all owned out of Japan. Yea there's some local distillaries but profit loss to Japan. Everyone is mad at Trump.
He tries so hard, and by try, I mean he does nothing.
Whiskey isn't 'winning'.... Is anything?
We’ll vote Trump out!
That was on the table in 2024... the DNC decided that wasn't a great idea.. so here we are.
TRUMPONOMICS is an utter, absolute failure. Just like DONNIE DIM-WIT himself.
Way to go Canada!! Jack Daniels is produced in TN, a thoroughly red state. Maybe it will cause a few people there to reevaluate their vote. Probably not, (they did elect Marsha twice after all)... still, hope springs eternal.
Doubtful. Critical thinking is not their forte.
Jack Daniels' NAZI owners bigly supported Agolf Shitler. FAFO, bitches!
trump's making Canada dry
Canada Dry became famous during Prohibition because ginger ale was used as a mixer to mask the harsh taste of homemade alcohol.
interesting! I love trivia😉
Me too.
Trump happens
I wish all stores labelled country of origin, not just Made in Canada 🇨🇦. It would be easier to know what not to buy 🇺🇸 ( until they fix their fascist infection)
Fuggit, chug down yer Canadian Club. Also, Jack now comes in FLAVORS! It's an ABOMINATION!
🥳🥳🥳💪💪🇨🇦🇨🇦💪🎉🎉 #FuckTrump
As a Canadian… I’m surprised it only fell 62%
Elbows Up!🇨🇦
Only 38% to go! Why would Canadians buy Jack Daniel’s when they have much better local options? Life is too short for cheap booze…
??? How much money does tRUmp make off of Jack Daniels' sales? Right. That's how much he cares. So, what is your point here?
Wait till the red state clues in. They are a little slow aren’t they?
And how many job losses does that add?
You know you've pee'd off a Maritimer when we start boycotting your fine beverages...

I tried to order a bourbon and Coke on a flight the other day, but they don’t have bourbon. Then I realized of course they don’t: I was flying Air Canada.
But, we're winning right?
I'm a Canadian bourbon drinker 🇨🇦. I support keeping American alcohol off our shelves until Trump is gone and 51st State idea and the tariffs are gone.
Me too! I have been enjoying various Canadian and European products instead of bourbon. For me, it's the principal because I❤️ 🇨🇦 more than an alcohol.
awesome done Canada 💪
Stopped buying Bourbon and moved to rums. Gap in the market here in the U.K. for interesting Canadian whisk(e)y.
It’s tragic but America deserves this. I will always believe that Trump somehow cheated to win but too many Americans knowing that they were voting for a treasonous RAPIST felon went ahead and voted It into office despite those facts. What exactly did those fucking fools think the RAPIST would do?
Put a he out of business.
You'd think that you'd be making bank with how much of a hellhole everything is, but noooo, you and you state had to support the person responsible for the hellhole. Yeah, I'm looking for something else to make whiskey sours while enjoying my states wine. Go trump, get dumped Jack Daniels.
And if you're suggesting Crown Royale, that is too smooth for mixed drinks and should be drank on the rocks.
Crown Royal is not Canadian owned, and is now leaving for the USA. Fuck them.
F D T!!!
A small thing but I do not buy Kentucky based alcohol for months because of Trump Tariffs.
This is Old Orchard Beach, Maine, yesterday. A lot of Canadian tourists usually visit during the summer. I've never seen it this empty, especially on a holiday weekend.
Even the most popular destinations occasionally enjoy a moment of peaceful solitude. A rare sight indeed.
Climate shifts are reshaping travel patterns. This quiet beach might speak volumes about our global situation.
Wait….so Canada isn’t paying?
Good. They need to feel direct consequences or they never learn.
Heckuva job Canada 🇨🇦 only 38% to go. ✌️🤘🏻
I’d love to know where the 38% is. Do I have to go to the door knocking ? “Excuse me, do you have TACO supporting hooch in your house? Could you not?”
I do miss my Weller’s bourbon but JP Wiser’s has ok whiskeys that’ll do in these trying times. Plus bourbon-style or corn whiskeys with some local distilleries trying their hand at it.
So much winning. The Republican business hacks got the government they financially donated to.
No one to blame but themselves! Look who their state voted for! One of first companies to gut DEI programs! They had money and opportunity to make a difference and they chose greed and corruption! They saw what first term did business and chose to ignore it. On them!
👍🇨🇦...🖕🇺🇸
Could be lower, but we still have some conservative-leaning traitors who will buy American booze and other goods, or travel there for leisure. They love mini-Trump conservative leaders like Pierre Poilievre and Danielle Smith, and they’re against the ‘Elbows Up’ support of Canadian business.
I'm making my own wine and beer. I, Don't need anything from that meth lab. I'm thinking of making apple cider, too. Thank you very much! LMAO 🥂🍻

Who did they back in the election?
Rhetorical, I assume?
Reading this, while sipping my scotch bought last month during my trip in UK.
Wife & I visiting Canada this weekend and let me tell you, the hatred is real for the U.S., but not Americans! Restaurants no longer serving American wines/beer or at a huge reduced rate. Grocery stores with “Proudly Grown in Canada” labels! Have never seen so many Canadian flags in yards before.
I thought Canada stopped importing all Jack Daniel's. if not, what happened to "elbows up"?
It's ok. Our brand of Crown Royal is moving some of its processing to the US. Frankly, you can have it. It's garbage "whisky". We have wonderful whisky here that we love. To bad it's come to this, but I am proud of our country and how we stand up to Trump and his bullshit. ELBOWS UP CANADA! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Oh yeah. Go canada
Elbows up!
Thank you, Canada! 🇨🇦🍁🥰
Good. I’m not drinking manifest destiny swill.
That Obit is going to be the hottest drop ever!
Once again he has hurt his own voters. The Bourbon Trail, Jack Daniels Distillery and a very large bourbon industry is in Kentucky, a red State. Real lives affected by this madman.
Not enough.
Maga!
MAGA
Good. They supported Derr Orange Pedofuehrer, and these are the consequences.
The Liqor Control Board of Ontario is the one of highest purchaser of alcohol in the World .. so yeah Kentucky is feeling it.. Canadians are buying Canadian and telling DT to shove it up his discharge port
And how about this additional visa fee craziness . Why would anyone who isn’t an ……..or on business pay $400 to visit 🇺🇸? apple.news/AvPx7yTF0TrO...
😍
Business genius in reverse.
I'm sure they all voted for Trump, so I don't care.
How hard is it to believe that there are people out there who think Trump is doing a good job? Some of us Americans really are still that dumb.
I heard it’s because the news is lying to the Americans and they are buying it instead of doing their own fact checks.
It isn't a sign of brilliance to accept one source of information without question. Russia Today underlies Fox, Newsmax et al.
"Evolution in action", spirits-wise.
Make Canada Sober Again
#FAFO Jack, told you to fight discrimination and hate.
Went to U of L where Jack was like a student 😉It's the pride & joy of KY even tho the factory is in Tn. So many people are employed there; generations of families! How they voted against their own viability knowing revenge was all he ran on adds to the stigma of southern reds. No libs crying now
I went to UK. The only time we wouldn’t drink Jack was during any KY-Tennessee game.
My roomie was from Frankfurt. We'd get calls all night with screams of GO CATS! & then hang up before every match up. So, she'd call back & scream GO CARDS! The rivalry 😆 Like us Yankees fans who hate Mets fans 😅 Neither one of us drank but we did visit the factory. Very cool!
