Canadian Businesses Boom Amidst US Tariff Threats and Boycotts
Increased patriotism and a desire to support local businesses, fueled by recent political events and a growing awareness of product origins, have led to a surge in sales for several Canadian companies. Ottawa Valley Meats, Blondie Apparel, and Glorified By Society all reported significant sales increases—30%, 35%, and 20%, respectively—since the beginning of the year. This “Made in Canada” movement reflects a shift in consumer behavior, with customers actively seeking out and proudly purchasing Canadian-made goods. The success of these businesses highlights the potential economic impact of supporting domestic producers.
