Absinthe in Prince Edward Island, Canada section[edit]

This article states that Deep Roots absinthe is not available from provincial liquor stores, but it has since been stocked by them. See https://liquorpei.com/products/deep-roots-absinthe/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.215.105.65 (talk) 05:06, 31 October 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Citation Error[edit]

The first website cited in the tab Health affects under the number 84 is not a credible website or author. 24.240.72.156 (talk) 23:56, 20 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Those numbers change. Can you cite the source of your concern. GenQuest ^"scribble" 02:50, 21 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
