School paper about Canadian craft brewing. Help?

Hi Bartoweler's, I'm writing a paper and could use some help. Could anyone point me to a chronological timeline of the Canadian craft brewing industry? Also, any beer resources that study the economic and socio-political climate of our past, present, future industry would be a big help too! Thanks!

Victory Yakima Glory - like the Black IPA (whatever you call it) style I first sampled with Netherworld but Victory comes out the winner with this one.
Next is Stoudts Double IPA.

I live in Sudbury and visit the Buddha on occasion. The beer selection is great, Simplefolk - relative to the rest of Sudbury - that is, pretty terrible. You pay a pretty premium on Belgians and 'BO seasonals (St Peter's Cream Stout). If it weren't for hoarding beers from down south, I'd be pretty b...

Thanks Ralphus! This is a very convenient tool for me. The time and effort this saves me can not be overstated. I'm in Sudbury, where very few new and interesting beers arrive, and when they do, they're in very limited supply and are often gone in a few short weeks. I used to check the LCBO's websit...

If you place an order for the minimum, a case of 24, and just pay for say 6 beers, I can imagine the dirty looks you'd get from the warehouse and clerk. Up in the Sudbury, I've talked to the warehouse supervisor about bringing product in and the problem transfers create is that if the entire case is...
