Canada has huge reserves of oil, natural gas, minerals, timber. Americans need that.
Canada doesn’t need anything americans sell
Adobe Photoshop 👉 Use GIMP or Affinity.
Adobe Illustrator 👉 Use Inkscape or Affinity.
Word and Excel 👉 LibreOffice is better. No AI shit and it won’t spy on you.
Microsoft Windows 👉 Use Linux. It’s more secure anyway.
General Motors, Ford, Dodge, Chrysler, Tesla 👉 We don’t need shitty american cars. Buy Hyundai, Toyotas, Honda, Volkswagen.
Apple iPhone 👉 Buy a Samsung
Starbucks Coffee 👉 Just drink local coffee.
McDonalds 👉 Buy from A&W or Harveys
Hyatt Hotels, Marriott Hotels, Four Seasons 👉 Go to Canadian hotels
Amazon 👉 Fuck Jeff Bezos. Buy from your local stores.
Maxwell House Coffee 👉 Balzac’s Coffee Roasters is Canadian
Tourism 👉 Visit Quebec, Banff National Park, Niagara Falls, Vancouver Island, Johnstone Strait, Yoho National Park. Go north to watch beautiful Arctic landscapes. At least you won’t be shot and killed.
Boeing 👉 Buy Airbus. At least they won’t crash.
What do americans sell that Canadians actually need? Nothing. They just sell convenience. Their products are often substandard
Airbus has a factory in alabama too. Every company that builds factories in the us builds them in suburban parts of the worst states to keep their costs down and their workforce from unionizing. No large company, american or not, is above that.
Toyota is similar. Of their 15 North American factories, two are in Ontario, two are in Mexico, two are in California, and the remaining ten are all in us states that are republican strongholds.
Hyundai’s north american factories are in georgia and alabama. Kia’s two american factories are in georgia. Honda is ohio, alabama, both carolona, indiana, and georgia. VW is tennessee, texas, alabama, and oklahoma. This is every one of them.
Every single automaker I checked does most of their North American manufacturing not just primarily in the us, but specifically in the states that support those making threats against Canadian sovereignty.
The only solution as a car buyer would be to only buy those that are banned in the states. Or maybe not even that. BYD does have one american factory making busses. It in California, one of the less bad parts so there’s that at least.
