This is how Canadians across the country are calling for a consumer boycott on U.S. products to protest of Trump trade tariffs. In order for the boycott to work, a Canadian competitor has to profit.
True story is that almost every product we buy in Canada will benefit the U.S. somehow. What can we do, Canadians who plan to boycott U.S. products this is my list to hit all together. You might notice that some of these brands are American-owned, supporting them will still somehow benefit Canadian industries because of their strong investment in certain provinces.
