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.”

    I’d take it case by case, preference is Canadian owned and operated, but if they employee Canadians to make in Canada (and actually support their Canadian operations instead of raiding them of all value), yeah, I’m OK with it so long at the company/ownership isn’t vile, there are Canadian owned and operated companies I won’t do business with (book outlet/book depot to name drop one).
