On March 9, 2024, the Minister of Finance announced that the federal government is proposing to cap the inflation adjustment for excise duty rates on beer, spirits and wine at 2% for 2 additional years and to cut by half the excise duty rates on the first 15,000 hectolitres of beer brewed in Canada for 2 years.
As a result, the published rates of excise duty applicable to these products effective April 1, 2024 have been corrected.
