March 5 (Reuters) - Jack Daniel’s maker Brown-Forman’s CEO Lawson Whiting said on Wednesday Canadian provinces taking American liquor off store shelves was “worse than a tariff” and a “disproportionate response” to levies imposed by the Trump administration.

Several Canadian provinces have taken U.S. liquor off store shelves as part of retaliatory measures against President Donald Trump’s tariffs.

Canadians are steering away from U.S. goods, sports events and trips following the recent imposition of tariffs, which have left them stirred, despite the deep ties between the two countries.

    We live under Trump, and our last vote was a choice between Trump and Trump’s 2016 platform, what meaningful democracy?

    You’re on the same trajectory as us, with a choice between “progressive” neoliberals continuing to hollow out social programs while poisoning indigenous people’s water at home and supporting wars of imperialism on the other side of the world, and conservative neoliberals doing the same, and you’re probably going to end up with the greater evil this time.

    Also who the hell can afford a house?
