I can't speak for all Canadians, but I can speak for myself. I WILL spend more if I know the product is from Canada.

We need new labels: Who is profiting from this product???

[–] OldCrow@lemmy.ca 7 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Agreed. Now, is the flour I'm buying that says "Product of Canada" actually a product of Canada?? I'm finding that "Product of Canada" doesn't actually mean Canada is getting the profits...

Agreed. But when a package says: Product of Canada, and then I find out the profits are actually going to the USA?? WTF?

Thank you to all for the education. So, "Product of Canada", might be owned by Americans? How can Canadians tell the difference??

[–] OldCrow@lemmy.ca 18 points 4 days ago (8 children)

Ok then. Just did some research. WTF?? So, Product of Canada does NOT mean what we think. I think we need new guidelines: Product of Canada needs to mean: Canadian Company. And, thank you to all for the education! Most appreciated!

Yes! Yikes, I stand corrected. All but Pearl Milling said Product of USA. Thank you for the correction!

This picture was taken in "No Frills" today. The only box that said Product of Canada was Pearl Milling. All the other brands said Product of USA.

I was in "No Frills" today. All but Pearl Milling said Product of Canada. One of them said "Packaged in Canada", but still said, "Product of USA".

 

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.

I’d be down with that. Would you be willing to gasp socialize and allow universal healthcare??
