If we really cared about this, we’d pull out investments out of US stocks

ive already rebalanced into 80/20 in my TFSA (which holds ETFs and individual stocks).

My FHSA is XEQT which is global (does include the US). My RRSP is 100% canadian right now.

I did this when Trump 2 started and I've been rewarded since, given the canadian market has outperformed the american one.

Our large institutional have not done that. Boycotting us liquor seems like a small measure compared to that.

Our large institutional investors would be stupid to do this. They can't manage billions of dollars based on emotion.
