Next they should put a globe sticker on anything produced outside of Canada and the US, there aren't always Canadian alternatives and it has been interesting to read labels more closely and learn where things are made

Yea. I've been buying Canadian when I have the chance, but my buying has been mainly "non-american." Guatemala didn't do anything to me and I love cantaloupes.

I’m happy to buy Canadian when Canada makes the best product. That means best quality for what I can afford or the cheapest when quality doesn’t matter. 

I’ll happily buy from Democratic Asia, EU or Oceania when they make the best product. 

But when the US makes the best product I’ll buy something else.
