RE: https://mstdn.ca/@cbc_top_stories/117336296237705192 Easy solution: do not buy American products. #BuyCanadian #ElbowsUp

"Driscoll’s berries are on many Canadians’ plates and all over Canadian grocery stores, with their tagline claiming to be “only the finest berries.” But a whistleblower lawsuit in California alleges the finest berries were not sent to Canada: instead, millions of pounds of fruit containing non-compliant levels of pesticides and chemicals crossed the border, and the company tried to cover it up. California resident and former Driscoll’s employee David Harada claims in the lawsuit that by Driscoll’s own estimates, about 50 per cent of all shipments to Canada from 2022 to 2024 had fruit that exceeded Canadian safety levels." https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/whistleblower-allege-driscoll-s-berries-9.7359158 #BuyCanadian

Ordered some kitchen towels (100% linen!) from G&T design in BC. Great quality and fair pricing. I’ll order some more of their stuff for Christmas. Thanks @tod@hci.social for the buy Canadian video series. Some real gems there! #BuyCanadian

Jocelyn and I added five more Canadian companies to our UNPLUG AMERICA directory today. If you want to switch YOUR technology to Canadian alternatives, check out https://unplug.todmaffin.com It's free, no ads, no trackers, and contains no affiliate links. #BuyCanadian

SNEAK PEEK: Later this week, Jocelyn and I will launch our next #BuyCanadian project — a detailed directory of Canadian tech services that replace the big American ones. From email to social networks, e-commerce to maps. Each listing has data about company ownership, corporate history, and its true connections to Canada (or not). (Some of you have asked how you can support our work — the best way is by subscribing to Tod's weekly newsletter about Canada... it's free... https://support.todmaffin.com)

If you run a small Canadian business that's being hit by the U.S. tariffs, submit a ten-second video and I'll put you in my directory... and might feature your on my social media channels. If you want to support a Canadian small business, check out the site or my past videos at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLF1dYcB-FfX0 ✅ https://mainstreet.todmaffin.com#BuyCanadian

The place I used to buy my coffee syrups closed down ages ago, and today I found an alternative based in Kelowna, who not only sell the syrups, but make them as well! https://simpsmb.com/pages/about-us #Canada #Coffee #BC #BuyCanadian #ElbowsUp

If you are in the US, and you are making an effort to order things online from Canada before the new tariffs go into effect, I'd love to know what you're stocking up on and which vendors and products you recommend. Shop links are welcome! 🍁 #Canada #Tariffs #BuyCanadian #AskFedi

Looking for Canadian cereal. Must be Canadian sourced ingredients. Any suggestions? Looking for things like Raisin Bran, vector type dry cereals. In Holland they have a great subscription based granola type serial. Reasonably priced too. Either in store on online is fine for our needs. #elbowsUp #buyCanadian

Ordered a shelf for the server rack online. It made it to the first sorting facility and was returned due to extensive damage. I've now discovered a Montreal company that manufactures and sells shelving for less. https://sysracks.ca/ #homeLab #buyCanadian

Just putting it out there that I have almost *never* been happier to see “Product of Canada” in the produce aisle. #Toronto #ElbowsUp #BuyCanadian

Felt a lot of satisfaction yesterday at the grocery to pick an item in my hands and then… oops, US made. Good bye, back on the shelf Keep it up, every $ diverted is a win. #buycanadian
