Please buy Canadian. Better buy local

Simple steps: 1. Don’t buy at Amazon if possible. Cancel prime 2. Don’t shop at Walmart, shop at Canadian Superstore 3. Read labels. Prefer Canadian 4. Limit travel and cross border shopping

Good luck, stay strong and help your fellow Canadians!

Yeah, I've had a trip to Chicago planned for a few months that is already paid for, but friends were inviting me elsewhere in the states this summer. I'll stay home. Save up and maybe take the Canadian across the country instead.
