‘I can’t believe we’re being targeted’ Kamloops wineries weigh in on Alberta ban
KAMLOOPS — The wine war between B.C. and Alberta is starting to hit Kamloops-area wine producers where it hurts most — in the pocketbook.
Alberta Premier Rachel Notley said the B.C. wine ban will remain in place as long as Victoria maintains its ban on increased bitumen shipments from Alberta to the West Coast.
Monte Creek Ranch Winery just outside of Kamloops has been shipping wine to Alberta for two years and confirmed to CFJC Today the ban went into effect for them Wednesday morning.
