You can’t wait for the media, because the media is largely owned by the far right.

They make highly inflammatory right leaning news programs, and highly complacent left leaning news programs. It keeps the right active and angry, and tells the left to sit down and fret quietly while waiting for due process to solve problems.

 

If I compare trying to buy as much Canadian product as possible, it was far easier today than a month ago. La Cocina tortillas sit on the top shelf of the tortilla area, Covered Bridge and Hawkins rest in the high traffic chip aisle among the big companies. This store now carries 6 flavours of Sprague soup instead of one.

Some products were always there, but it was a lot less digging today!

Yikes, Reddit is slowly killing itself. I remember years ago it was more the opposite - there were some seriously disturbing subs because they didn’t want any censorship. Now the pendulum has swung too far in the other direction and it’s hard to say anything of substance without getting warned or banned

 

Sharing this delicious jam from family-run Moss Berry Farm in Stratford, Ontario.

Fruit is grown by their farm and other nearby farms, and all products are made in Canada. Picked up these two excellent jams today, but the chutneys (mango, apple tamarind) are also worth your time!
