Message from Ken Beattie, Guild ED. “Thanks to all who supported the #protectbccraftbeer campaign and continue to share our posts. Your efforts have resulted in a meeting in September with Minister Lana Popham to address our concerns and the urgency on changing the outdated tax system, creating sustainability for our 219 member breweries.”
“Right now, we have a system that penalizes success. We are actually punishing craft brewers for creating more jobs, more opportunities, more tax revenue, and more demand for agricultural inputs,” said Gavin Dew, BC Conservative MLA.
