    Local restaurant in my town makes their own jam for the breakfast menu and they offer it in small jars to take home! I can’t speak for every ingredient in the jam but I know their menu is sourced locally as much as possible.

    Not really a brand but try and shop local!

    Crofter’s is available cheaply-ish in Costco. Made in Canada by a Canadian company (Crofters, though that was purchased by an American investment group so…)

    President’s Choice Blue Menu Twice the Fruit Jam Raspberry is one of the best I’ve had.

    I’m currently buying a French fruit spread from Costco that reminds me of it, but I’m thinking of going back due to shopping more at Loblaws again 🤢 Sacrifices must be made to support Canadian.

    If I may ask a side question, what are some good 100% peanut butters made in Canada? The Kirkland brand is made in Canada, with Canadian peanuts, but it’s an American company. Again, Loblaws has a decent one, but it is super expensive. Most peanut butters are American.

      I believe Fatso peanut butter is Canadian. It’s quite good.

      For non-peanut nut butters, look for “Nuts To You” nut butter.

        I believe Fatso peanut butter is Canadian. It’s quite good.

        They may be a Canadian company, but:

        “Where does Fatso source its peanuts? We source our peanuts from a number of sources/countries.”

        It’s possible they are sourcing American peanuts, but peanuts do come from other places, and it’s near impossible to find Canadian sourced peanuts :(

        EDIT: Found a canadian grower! https://www.kernalpeanuts.com/
