Anecdotal, ofc, since I no longer have my finger on many pulses, but literally everyone I’ve interacted with over the past few days is consciously trying to avoid US products (it’s not easy).
I live in a <1500 town: the sole grocer (one of the pc/loblaws behemoth) has begun tagging US items to aid consumers’ choices.
I’m in a rural town of 3k. Local grocery store Facebook page had to turn off their comment section after a good chunk of the town went nuts at the grocery store for not marking and hiding American made goods.
They issued an apology and removed the remainder US products. This same town used to have lifted pickups with “fuck Trudeau” and American flags on the back. Haven’t seen any in the last month.
