Yeah im Canadian so we get a lot of their food, I see myself reaching for a snack item or ceral and when I notice it’s American I put it back. After I do I realize I really shouldn’t be eating that crap anyways so it saves me money and keeps me from eating so much junk food
Yeah, I mean we do get some American food over here, but it’s sold as specialty stuff and ridiculously expensive. I’m basically addicted to US Dr Pepper (they use a different recipe in Europe, hell in the US and Canada Dr Pepper is produced by Pepsi but in the EU it’s made by Coca Cola) but the price is already crazy. A 12 pack is about $6 USD (pre tax) on offer in Walmart, in the UK on Amazon it’s £28 (inc tax) for 2 ($38.05 or $14 per 12 pack). On the shelves in places that have it the cheapest price is probably £1.50 per can ($2.04) but only goes up from there.
There are a fair few US candy shops around Europe, at least in major European cities, but more than likely these are money laundering fronts first and foremost.
Just about everyone i know is anti American right now, even conservative voters. Of course we have maple MAGA running around , but most people are pissed that Trump is treating Canada like an enemy

Would you say you’re in the minority or is it evident that most Canadians are boycotting?
Do you feel any slow down of the movement?

American produce is literally rotting on the shelves even at steep discount
At my local store US strawberries were on sale for $3 cad per pint and they all went to waste
You said pint, you’re not Canadian.
Source, I am Canadian
I’m in Victoria so British leaks in sometimes
What’s the Canadian unit of measure for strawberries?
Weirdly in Australia strawberries come by the “punnet” which is just the type of container I think.
Most other fruits are sold by the kilo.
