Researcher synthesis
Preserve denominators, categories and periods. The Canadian 70% figure is not directly comparable with the other article’s full-year whiskey-specific 57% figure.
Assessment
No named individual byline recovered. Publication date is from matching article:published_time and datePublished metadata, not a visible byline dateline. DISCUS is an industry association. Nominal growth from 2000 is not inflation-adjusted. A tariff-suspension-until-August statement is time-sensitive, not verified current policy.
Use the underlying export report for data and official dated policy sources for tariffs.
