I completely understand your concern. As someone who lives in Quebec, I can say I agree with my colleague Mr. Sacy. We are indeed disappointed that Quebec has not set a minimum price for these types of products.
Our recommendation that the government subject these beverages to the same excise tax as spirits would help achieve some consistency, at least in terms of the physical availability of these products. This would also have the effect of restricting their sale to publicly owned outlets, except in Alberta, whose privatized system makes things a bit more complicated. Another effect would be to increase the excise tax by a factor of 4.5, resulting in a minimum selling price that is consistently higher across the country.
