Saskatchewan will begin purchasing and distributing U.S. liquor again months after removing products from the shelves in response to U.S. tariffs. The move follows a similar decision made by Alberta where the government said it too would be allowing retailers to stock American products again.

The Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority (SLGA) said the move would allow it to both sell current stock and purchase new supplies for alcohol retailers in the province.
