From Echo Moskvy:
The authorities in one Canadian province want to introduce a ban on sales of Russian vodka
This is a response to Russia’s activity in the Ukraine. As local media report, those affected would be the government-owned shops in the Saskatchewan province in southern Canada. Approximately 14% of the population of that region have roots in the Ukraine.
