Buy Canadian

I do love me some wordle, connections and the odd sporcle quiz. Does anyone know anything like that that is Canadian made and managed?

Searching this, I see a couple options, mainly in the 'Eco-friendly' direction. (e.g. Made of corn husks or silk, etc.)

Has anyone found/tried a Canadian made floss? Any good? I can't seem to find any at local stores, so it seems like a lot to spend to buy a single pack of floss and ship it here.

I just find it funny that things like Montana's, Boston Pizza and New York Fries are Canadian. Any other American-named places that are Canadian?

I've heard good things from others so far, anything to be concerned about with them?

From their about page:

I've had a couple Gurus when I'm in a pinch and really need to stay awake. What other Canadian energy drinks are out there?

I have been using some brands for decades (e.g. Paula's choice) but would rather shop local. Does anyone have any favorite Canadian skincare brands they'd recommend?

I was at the grocery store the other day and there was a bin of American broccoli completely full and untouched. The Canadian broccoli bin? Empty. Canadians would literally rather give up broccoli than buy American.

I for one picked had broccoli on my grocery list but opted for cauliflower instead.

Without the Nutty Club in operation, I can't really find anything made in Canada at all...

For chips we have Old Dutch and La Cochina and a few other good options. But I'm completely lost in the junk food aisle trying to find snacks for D&D.

Does anyone knows an alternative to Campbell's chicken gumbo condensed soup? I use it for a specific recipe, and can't seem to find a Canadian replacement...

I need to buy jeans. Silver's are a fave of mine.... thought I would do some research before purchasing and I was thrilled to discover they are a Canadian denim company!

Hey! It's my first post!

I have a few websites that are hosted in the USA. I'm going to move them all to Canadian hosts. I'm looking for recommendations for hosting companies in Canada that are owned by Canadians. I've look at a few but first hand experience is always welcome.

Most of my sites are just basic html/css/javascript but one of them is a wordpress storefront. I specifically need the Wordpress site to be as fast as possible - a difficult task for wordpress, I know.

Also, glad to see this community! Great stuff!

I went into my local Giant Tiger and they only have coffee mate(which sucks now since they changed recipes) is there any Canadian brands for powder coffee Whitener?

TSN is a Canadian company owned by Bell while Sportsnet is owned by Rogers, both of which are Canadian companies.

For any thinking "I'm not buying anything, the app is free!" Yes, the apps are free, we are the product and more app users = more profit.

(Admittedly, ESPN has a 30% stake in the parent company.)

ESPN is owned by Disney, TheScore was Canadian but was recently bought by an American company.

Ever since we baked our first sprouted loaf over 30 years ago, Silver Hills Bakery breads have been proudly made in Canada. Today, every loaf starts with whole grains grown by Canadian farmers that we sprout, bake, pack, and ship from our family-owned bakery in Abbotsford, BC.

Donald wants us isolated, each country standing up to a giant by ourselves. And for some products, there aren't going to be affordable Canadian substitutes. But, if we look around the globe, maybe there are more?

I couldn't help but think this after so many kind folks pointed me to Deezer and other Tidal alternatives that aren't Canadian but at least aren't American owned. Personally, my preferences are Canada first, anywhere else non American second, and then ugh... I imagine others feel similar?
