The Canadian Air Transport Security Authority permits alcohol in checked bags, with certain limitations.

And click on the link to "Can I bring alcohol with me in my carry-on or checked baggage?"
Or read this excerpt:

Passengers may transport bottles of alcohol in their checked baggage if:
* The percentage of alcohol by volume is 70 per cent (140 proof) or less
* For alcoholic beverages, between 24% and 70% alcohol by volume, the quantity does not exceed 5 litres per person.
Note: alcoholic beverages containing 24% alcohol or less are not subject to limitations on quantities.

Just make sure that the bag can't be opened by the handlers. They could end up partying at your expense.
