The family behind one of Canada’s most well-known ice cream brands says they’re absorbing 'all immediate increases in our costs' as the U.S.-Canada trade war heats up.

Ashley Chapman, chief operating officer at Ontario-headquartered Chapman’s Ice Cream, said in a statement circulating on social media that the family decided to take that measure for the rest of the year to maintain their prices.

Chapman said they wanted to do their part to support Canadians as U.S. President Donald Trump continues to threaten economic annexation, which Chapman called the “greatest threat to our sovereignty” since the Second World War.
