Canadian businesses are pulling US distilled liquor from store shelves and the retaliation will impact Kentucky 's booming bourbon industry.

Victor Yarborough is the CEO of Bro Brothers Distillery and Louisville , Kentucky .

Yarborough: "It just takes away the opportunity to really sell anything. With tariffs, you can still sell at 25% the increase, but without anything to sell you".

The LCBO taking everything off the shelves that that that affects pretty much tremendous amount of the distilleries here in Kentucky .

So just the ability not to sell at all, that's what we're hearing that's very, very impactful and it's definitely sending the message. So we just have to hopefully cooler heads will prevail and, and figure out a way to just come to some sort of agreement that works for everyone.
