‘Buy Canadian’ movement just as strong 19 months since trade war began: poll - National | Globalnews.ca

In February 2025, Trump first announced tariffs against Canada. Abacus conducted a poll of Canadians asking if they intend to boycott American products.

Now if buying Canadian meant having better options. Crave is the only Canadian streaming platform I know of and on top of giving money to Bell, it’s… not great.

    Most centrists gave up on the loblaws boycott after a month.

    I doubt most Canadians are boycotting u.s goods.

      Your doubts don’t match my experience. I still see people in stores reading labels and putting things back if they say "made in USA ".

      All depends what they’re buying. If you drink Coke or Pepsi, for example, that would be an American brand made and/or bottled in Canada. And this is why this whole trade war thing is dumb.

      Also:

      I didn’t even know there was a Loblaws boycott. I only shop there if I have no other option.

        We just gave up purchasing stuff that was like that. A little pain now to send a message to the USA is worth it . they keep crabbing about us and their sales so it must be working.
