U.S. wine exports to Canada fell by 76 per cent in 2025, contributing to US$428M loss

The "buy Canadian" movement has apparently moved the needle on United States wine exports. In the wake of U.S. President Donald Trump's trade war, American beer and wine exports dropped by US$472 million in 2025, a 26 per cent decline from 2024, a new report from the U.S. Census Bureau shows.
