How do you know there was no effect? Did you find some numbers proving such? Loblaws never said a word that I can find.

I heard about the negligible effect during a newscast. I don't remember which one. I watch them all (CBC, CTV, Global, and City).

Some people's attitudes. Probably the same folks who don't vote because a single vote means nothing. Complacency is not the answer.

I believe that it is you who are misunderstanding the tariff threat. The 25% is just the opening salvo. There is no guarantee it will end at that point. Next month could be another 25%, and the next month, and so forth.

Alas, if only I could predict winning lottery numbers as well as I do tariffs. sf-cry

Weaker Canadian dollar compels more consumers to join made-in-Canada backlash  

Among those planning to travel, 62 per cent said they intended to prioritize vacationing at home versus 50 per cent in early January.

Two other new surveys also said people are rejecting U.S. products in favour of made-in-Canada goods to express their national pride and dismay at the new U.S. administration.

98 per cent of those surveyed by Angus Reid Group indicated they are shopping for made-in-Canada products, while 85 per cent said they planned to replace U.S. products. Four in five said they were committed to buying more local products, while three in five said they intended to boycott U.S. products.

“For the four in five Canadians who are planning to buy more Canadian products.

What needs to be added to the list is.
Boycotting American businesses operating in Canada.

And I like the idea of removing all American liquor from the shelves. All…not red states only.

The problem with tariffs is that they drive businesses to move investments and jobs south of the border. Boycotting Canadian subsidiaries of US businesses serves the exact same purpose. We want to encourage US businesses to stay and continue investing and employing people here.
