I'm from southwestern Ontario, and of course we have Point Pelee wine over there. If we're going to do any bragging about wines, if you haven't tasted our whites and our reds from Point Pelee, you really haven't....
The point is this. I just came back from the States—I wasn't born with this tan; I picked it up last week—where I went to a Costco store, and they have a better wine selection than any liquor control board store I've seen in all of Canada.
On the one hand, we want to expand our winery industry here in Canada. Are we afraid to move beyond Canada? We're talking about interprovincial. Why don't I see these great wines in Florida? What's going on? Are we afraid to make that move? Can we compete with the rest of the world, and as Mr. Jean was saying, free the bondage we've inflicted on wineries? It sounds almost Biblical.
I'll just open it up.
