Canadian Whisky and House of Commons

Davin de Kergommeaux: By Debra Black Immigration Reporter Fri., June 10, 2016 It a tempest in a scotch bottle, according to Toronto Star. With the announcement that the House of Commons has chosen a new official scotch — a 12-year-old Aberlour Highland single malt — some Canadian whisky distillers and experts are crying foul. Naturally, it from Scotland, and that what upsetting domestic whisky makers. We have a vibrant Canadian whisky industry, said Davin de Kergommeaux, author of a primer on Canadian whisky and co-ordinator of the Canadian Whisky Awards, held each January. It surprises me that they don't feel the same. My question is, why is the government promoting imported whisky over our own Canadian whisky is getting such a good reputation.
