If I compare trying to buy as much Canadian product as possible, it was far easier today than a month ago. La Cocina tortillas sit on the top shelf of the tortilla area, Covered Bridge and Hawkins rest in the high traffic chip aisle among the big companies. This store now carries 6 flavours of Sprague soup instead of one.

Some products were always there, but it was a lot less digging today!

When I shopped on Sunday Save-On-Foods had onions from Alberta (instead of the usual USA ones) and Hams were divided into to freezer sections - one Canadian made, and the other USA. They are slowly, very slowly, understanding that many of us will go without if we can't buy Canada first, Mexico, Europe & S America and Asia next and never USA.

It's cool to hear but I 100% noticed that save on specifically raised prices on Canadian products since the tariffs.

I'm not buying American but I'll be damned if I support them or fucking Loblaws through this shit. I'll stick to my local grocers, even though they haven't made it as easy to shop Canadian yet.
