I guess I shouldn't gripe because the person did share but, I really don't like it when I get a mysterious YouTube link to a clickbait title and have no idea what I'm going to get.
So I took the pain for the team, open that baby up in a private tab and skimmed through it.
Essentially it's a series of anecdotes from shopkeepers stating that customers no longer wish to purchase American products, they've stopped selling most American alcohols, the "Buy Canadian" movement is going to directly cost 10⁶ US workers their jobs as a result, and thats just scratching the surface.
It's a little bit of editorializing, a little bit of reporting, mostly interspersed with little anecdotes like a shopkeeper saying "oh we used to sell $60,000 of California wine a week and now thats all gone, we sell Canadian and French brands now"
Lather, rinse, repeat for 10 minutes.
Thank you for taking this one. LOL
