The US folded a winning hand, not the least of which was our relationship with Canada.
I’ll never forgive MAGA.

I won't forgive the US for allowing MAGA to win until they have a full on democratic socialist president. So, unlikely in my lifetime.
I'm still doing my part! And will continue to do so forever.
My partner and I haven't stopped or slowed down. If anything, as more time passes we replace more and more staples and services with Canadian or, at the very least, not American.
For example, when it all kicked off, we had some subscriptions still going (usually pay for a year at a time). It took us time for those to run out and switch to alternatives, but we did.
Over time, we've learnt to live without certain products that were staples for us before. We weaned off things as we found replacements or just made do without.
Still not at 100% but we're getting there. Doing our part.
Damn right it is!
The tricky part is when a company used to be Canadian, or looks Canadian, but is not a product of canada nor owned by Canada.
The product might just be "made in" or "prepared in" Canada, and on top of that not being owned by Canada anymore because of being bought out.
Yes, they don't make it easy.
It is still worth the effort to read labels and use some of the available apps while shopping.
Alsi, foreign owned but made in Canada is still better than made in USA, if that is the only choice you are faced with.
Yes, they don't make it easy.
100% on purpose, then the same companies push for "personal responsibility" and "vote with your wallet" movements, instead of real regulation, knowing full well they can misinform us into doing whatever they want
I’m Cascadian and I still buy Canadian when I can, and I don’t even live there.
As a Canadian who doesn't buy American if I can help it, I don't feel bad subscribing to Mother Jones and Skeptical Raptor. They are Americans fighting the current ills of America, which can only help me.
Not with media, they still are fully committed to buying american tv, movies, streaming platforms, and songs.
I have moved back to the high seas for media.
I've been augmenting my music collection with local artists lately.

I assume most provinces have a similar resource.
Makes sense; a lot of our media is owned or otherwise influenced by the Americans.
