- A Canadian beer factory is selling the “Presidential Package”, or 1,461 Canadian Laughter cans.
- It is intended to extend the course of President Trump’s second term.
- Some Canadian provinces have drawn alcohol made by the US from their shelves in response to Trump’s fees.
Canada’s oldest beer is bowing to the country’s constant trade warfare established by President Donald Trump.
Moosehead Breweries, located in the province of New Brunswick that is north -birth of Maine, said it is now selling “presidential packages”, which includes 1,461 cans of Canadian Lagerers. This is a beer for every day of Trump’s mandate, Birraria said.
“If early 2025 has taught us anything, is that there will be determination to weather four years of political uncertainty – and what better way to do it every day than with a truly Canadian beer,” said Karen Grigg, Breweries Marketing Director in a press release.
The case is retail for $ 3,490 CAD ($ 2,428) and is available in three provinces: Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Ontario.
Trevor Grant, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Moosehead Breweries, said “the presidential package is something we as a team have talked about for several weeks since some of these challenges with American tariffs and administration.”
“Of course, it’s a bit out of a difficult situation, so trying to have a little fun with it,” he said.
Moosehead Breweries’s “Presidential Package” is the latest act of opposition by Canadians against Trump, who has imposed new tariffs in Canada, Mexico and China. Trump has despised the Prime Minister of Canada as a “governor”.

Imports of Canada and Mexico were hit with 25% tariffs, while China’s energy imports are 20%. Canada energy imports also have a 10%fee. Although the tariffs came into force on March 4, Trump withdrew a few days later and said he was paying a one-month fee pause for some goods from Canada and Mexico.
Canada is the largest US trade partner. Trump has sailed the idea of making Canada the 51st US state, which has also gathered anger from the Canadians and led them to boycott the products made by SH.BA Canadian officials have said Trump’s idea is no joke.
Grant of Moosehead Breweries’ said Canadian buyers are looking for “now more than ever” products.
“We think this is a real opportunity for us,” Grant said.
He added that Moosehead Breweries operates “in a small community here in St. John, New Brunswick, and we like to stay connected to our community and return.”
“We would like to see the Canadians do the same and buy local,” Grant said.
The American drink and soul industry is already afraid of return.
Lawson Whiting, Jack Daniel’s parent manager, said Canadian provinces that attract the alcohol made by the US from their stores was “worse than tariffs” on a profit call this month.
“It is literally removing your sales,” Whitling said, adding that the answer seemed “very disproportionate” with 25%fee.
Following Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s announcement that he would impose a 25% vengeance fee on $ 155 billion of American goods, the Kentucky Distillers Association said the decision could have “widespread consequences across Kentucky, the 95% home of the world’s Bourbona”.
Andrew Oland, CEO and Moosehead Breweries president, called the tariffs a “disappointment” during an interview with CTV News on Wednesday.
“We’ve always had such a close relationship with the United States, and so it’s really sad to see this relationship going in a different direction,” he said.
