A majority of Canadians would be hesitant to buy U.S. goods in response to the proposed American tariff on products from Canada, according to a new survey.

The findings of a recently released Nanos Research survey suggest a tariff on Canadian exports into the U.S. would, for two-thirds of Canadians, negatively impact the likelihood they’d purchase U.S.-made goods.

On Nov. 25, U.S. president-elect Donald Trump said he would impose a 25 per cent tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico until the two countries clamped down on drugs, particularly fentanyl, and migrants crossing the border.

    It’s not manufactured goods, but Canada imports a lot of produce from the US.

    During the last Trump administration, I avoided buying American-grown fruit and vegetables whenever I could.

      Same, started doing it again yesterday.

      Except this time, for all its evils, I have AI to suggest meals/recipes based on what Canadian produce looks good and is at a reasonable price in the store.
