Canadian Wines Excise Exemption
That the following resolution from Grey County, regarding supporting 100%
Canadian Wines Excise Exemption be endorsed by the Municipality of Clarington:
Whereas, Canada's federal excise tax currently exempts 100% Canadian
wines;
Whereas, Australia has asked the World Trade Organization (WTO) to rule
that his exemption is discriminatory;
Whereas, if the WTO were to rule with Australia, Canadian wineries making
100% Canadian wine would no longer be exempt;

across Canada;
Whereas, in the 13 years since this exemption was created, the production of
100% Canadian wine has increased by almost 30 million litres, representing
an additional annual contribution of $2.7 billion to the Canadian economy;
Whereas, Grey County, specifically the municipalities of Meaford and Town of
Blue Mountains, is home to a number of successful, award winning, boutique
wineries;
Now Therefore Be It Resolved That, the County of Grey supports the excise
exemption for 100% Canadian wines; and
That, the County of Grey appeals to the Federal government to ensure the
exemption remains in place by reaching an agreement with Australia prior to
the WTO ruling; and
That, this motion be forwarded to: The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau,
Prime Minister of Canada; The Honourable Andrew Scheer, Leader of the
Official Opposition; Yves-Frangois Blanchet, Leader of the Bloc Quebecois;
Jagmeet Singh, Leader of the New Democratic Party of Canada; Jo -Ann
Roberts, Interim Leader of the Green Party of Canada; The Honourable Mary
