You don't know the power of our provincial liquor boards.
The key word is 'stranglehold'.

I would love to be able to buy wines from a place like wine.com but such Canadian outlets do not exist. Wineries in different provinces technically cannot sell to individuals in other provinces. You either travel to buy it or buy what the local stores are allowed to stock.
If i were to buy bottles from the US, there's that border and shipping issue.

If some Canadian national wine club were to organize, buy local wines and ship them to their 'members', i have no doubt it would be considered as breaking numerous liquor laws in some way.
I still don't have a very good handle on how all our liquor laws works.
Compared to the US, our booze is far more pricey and less plentiful as surprising as that may sound.

So does your company have an office in Winnipeg by chance? ;\)
