Guide For Canadians Making Purchases

 

Titles are hyperlinks that will open in a new tab. We'll continue to add resources and make updates to organize things as the list grows. The site is a work in progress so check back often for more.

 /r/BuyCanadian

A reddit space to share Canadian alternatives to products made elsewhere, products we use every day. They point out that while the subreddit is called BuyCanadian, that doesn't mean you need to stop buying products imported from other nations. A global understanding and trade partnerships with other nations are very important to Canada's position on the world stage, and our reputation and relationship with other nations.

A place to share info and sources on Canadian manufactured goods - be it clothing, shoes, household goods, bikes, or anything else made here with quality, pride, and (presumably) fair wages and working conditions.

 MadeInCanada-eh.ca

Number 1, Never 51. Like the mighty beaver, Canadians are strong, determined, ingenuitive and free. We are independent, yet strongest working together ... and when met with a bully we fight back in our own scrappy, clever ways.

 MadeInCA.ca

Born at the height of the US/Canada trade spat, Made in CA is compiling a list of Canadian products in one place, so you can support Canadian businesses and Canadian workers.

Site Roadmap

The site was originally created with the idea of building a searchable index allowing users to type in a brand, product, or service and see Canadian, or Canadian-friendly options for purchasing. Current schedules and commitments are working against us here but things are coming along slowly. We will continue to add and sort resources and activism options for Canadians. Depending on the length of time this trade war continues, other resources to support systems may also be added..
