Well when they attack Canadian Sovereignty, it involves cutting out anything USA made or affiliated...as much as we can.
It actually hasn't been that restrictive, as there are Canadian businesses that we've ignored. The USAs tariffing has actually strengthened our internal economy.
Looks like every other country is also dropping USA based items and projects, because who knows what the current admin will force onto small businesses, or sudden cut off of services.
Yeah I mean good luck, seems like you'd have to choose your battles. That's a lot to avoid - music, media, tech
Yeah we have done those too. Paramount and Netflix cancelled. Canada has a free strwaming site from the CBC.
I've repurposed hardware with Linux to get performance back instead of CPU upgrade for Windows.
Repaired an older car instead of buying new (for many reasons).
Grocery store has brought in more Mexican and overseas products since many people stopped buying USA products.
Staycationing in our province.
So far its been easy.
