The Ontario Legislature has ordered all liquor stores to remove Russian vodka from their shelves. It doesn't sound very effective, but I guess that all sanctions added together might have some financial effect.

Well, Well,Well.

By all means ban imports. That might hurt them.

What effect does banning selling stuff already in the country have?

They should compensate the businesses, why should they be penalised.

I think Airbus and Boeing should be banned from selling aircraft, parts and support to any Russian airline. Perhaps even remotely disable the aircraft they have, if it is possible (as long as they are not airborne at the time)

Hopkirk, I imagine that the "logic" is the if none is sold no more needs to be imported.

Now that, tonyav, would have a much greater significant impact. The population of Ontario is only around 15 million and not everybody drinks, and of those who do drink not everybody buys vodka.

Well done Ontario, that's the spirit.

Certainly would, even if the USA and GB made a start with it.
