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.

    I always get a good laugh when I see a giant “PROUDLY MADE IN USA” sticker that has a big US flag.

    and it’s on a plastic tub. Or a bucket. I think the plastic brush I use to clean my cast-iron pan is from the US, but again it’s just a lump of plastic.

    I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that the most common USA-produced good I interact with is oil.
