Trade Wars, Tariffs, and Why It’s Time to Buy Canadian
Well, here we are, folks—facing another round of tensions with our neighbours to the south. Even though Trump agreed to a 30 day pause on tariffs, this will keep coming up again and again and again unless we make it clear we’re done with American games. Let’s take matters into our own hands and buy Canadian.
That’s why The Eh List exists—to help you find the best Canadian-made products so you can support local businesses, keep your loonies at home, and stick it to unfair tariffs.
Why Buying Canadian Matters (Now More Than Ever)
Every time you choose a Made-in-Canada product, you’re doing more than just making a purchase—you’re making an impact. Here’s why it matters:
✅ You’re Supporting Local Jobs – More Canadian purchases mean more work for Canadian businesses. Simple as that.
✅ You’re Reducing Our Dependence on U.S. Imports – The more we rely on American goods, the more vulnerable we are when trade relations go sideways. Buying Canadian strengthens our economy and keeps us resilient.
✅ You’re Avoiding Tariffs & Price Hikes – If a product gets slapped with a tariff, guess who pays the price? You do. Avoid the markup and shop local instead.
✅ You’re Getting Quality Products – Canada is known for its high standards, ethical labor, and sustainable practices. When you buy Canadian, you know you’re getting the good stuff.
