Oh no, an extra buck for my next trip.

Whatever will I do?

I know, I’ll buy a cheaper Gray Monk merlot rather than a more expensive La Stella.  But just this one time because La Stella is stellar.

Oh, I suffer. 

Or maybe I can switch to a nice vegatarian meal and skip some Alberta beef to save a few bucks....



eta: ok, price check on the wine. Gray Monk merlot is $21 a bottle compared to the $90 for the La Stella. Will have to do a tasting to see if the extra $70 is worth it.

The point is this nonsense just drives prices up and discourages investment. Rejoice, you might get your wine cheaper because BC producers have just lost their second biggest market. I'm sure they are ecstatic about that. Then again, the government will probably put our prices up because of the revenue they are losing.
