According to a new study by the Angus Reid Institute, 76% of Canadians say they’re boycotting American products.

61% of Canadians also say they’re cancelling or delaying trips to the U.S., while 86% say they’re buying more Canadian products.

“The cross-border data already proves it: Canadians are cutting back their travel to the U.S. to levels last seen during COVID-19. These numbers may drop further, considering that 3 in 5 Canadians say they’re cancelling or delaying plans to travel across the border. In addition to this, the proportion of Canadians saying they’re boycotting American products or buying more Canadian products is already high and appears to be growing.”

Why do your products contain both domestic and imported ingredients?

To ensure our products remain non-GMO, sometimes sourcing within Canada is not an option. Our seasonings often contain spices, which may not be available in Canada due to our climate.

We also take transportation emissions into consideration. For example, we are far closer to say, Oregon than we are to Prince Edward Island.

Yukon-born, BC resident Jasmine Mooney describes the horrifying experience.

Un discussion avec Édouard Roussez, administrateur du groupe FB "Boycott USA! Achetez Français et Européen !". Il a dit que nous devons quitter les réseaux sociaux Americains, et il a mentionné de utiliser Mastodon au lieu de Twitter.

Air Canada says there are no concrete numbers or signals yet but they are preparing to decrease the number of US bound trips beginning in March, if cancellations and demand from Canadians decreases.
