The Conservative Party of BC will remove the PST on beer, wine, and spirits.
This commitment, as part of a broader plan to support a key sector of the BC economy impacted by US tariffs, will remain in place for the duration of Donald Trump’s trade war. Removing the PST will lower prices for British Columbians, help protect BC’s economy, and stand up for those most affected by Trump’s trade war.
British Columbia’s wineries, breweries and distilleries support more than 20,000 good jobs in communities across our province. We can’t let Donald Trump’s bullying shut them down.
This targeted relief will help British Columbian producers compete and protect the tens of thousands of jobs that depend on them. Wineries, breweries and distilleries contribute billions of dollars to our economy, supporting more than 20,000 people in 70 communities. These jobs are integral to our diversified economy and are core regional economic drivers.
This PST cut will also provide British Columbians with some much-needed relief at the till after years of the NDP’s cost-of-living crisis. When you choose BC wine, beer or spirits, you’ll be supporting local jobs and keeping more of your hard-earned money.
