    Yeah im Canadian so we get a lot of their food, I see myself reaching for a snack item or ceral and when I notice it’s American I put it back. After I do I realize I really shouldn’t be eating that crap anyways so it saves me money and keeps me from eating so much junk food

      Would you say you’re in the minority or is it evident that most Canadians are boycotting?

      Do you feel any slow down of the movement?

        American produce is literally rotting on the shelves even at steep discount

        At my local store US strawberries were on sale for $3 cad per pint and they all went to waste

            What’s the Canadian unit of measure for strawberries?

            Weirdly in Australia strawberries come by the “punnet” which is just the type of container I think.

            Most other fruits are sold by the kilo.

        Just about everyone i know is anti American right now, even conservative voters. Of course we have maple MAGA running around , but most people are pissed that Trump is treating Canada like an enemy
