So the federal government was going to increase beer taxes by 6.3% on April 1st.
And this was no April Fool's joke either.
But then our old reliable heroes came to the rescue!
That's right. Bob & Doug. The McKenzie brothers.
Apparently the boys put their toques back on and made a series of commercials for Beer Canada.
Ridiculous you say?
Well it worked.
In the federal budget released today, beer tax was only increased by 2%.
So is that good news? Why raise the tax at all?
I think the boys should say to Trudeau, "Take a hike, you hoser!"
Anyway, 6% would have been killer.
