    Can we do like a Canada plus Europe friendship exchange?

    I definitely buy Canadian and European first, then anywhere else, then US now.

      That is a valid opinion and you have the right to it.
      Imho, if you buy European, what comes 2nd and 3rd are of your own preference.

      I only buy Canadian maple syrup. Does Canada export anything else?

    I’d like to see more euro based supermarkets. German curry ketchup nom nom.

    I have also started picking up more Asian and Indian products and swapping more staples for a non big brand or American related option.

    Example dropped the fancy mayo and I now buy the polish Winiary Mayonnaise. One item at a time if you have to dump the greedy brands.
