Pearl Milling is Canadian. I've been using it since the first tariff wave. It's just as good. Yes, I'm back to turning "Product of USA" upside down.

Ethical shopping sure is exhausting.

Doing the right thing is seldom the easiest path, but it is the right thing to do.

A saying I heard a while ago: taking the path of least resistance is what makes rivers run crooked.

It's more of a one time cost for most things. Once you know the brands that are Canadian, you just go and buy more of that brand the on your next trip to the grocery store.

So it's a one time effort to change your pattern, after that it's just going to the grocery store and picking more stuff like normal.

Yeah, but my memory is kinda really bad. I've been trying to mostly buy stuff with a Canadian symbol on it, but if that isn't a reliable way to avoid american goods then I feel like there isn't much more I can do. I wish the government would reform their labeling laws. or something.
