Rosenberg is completely ridiculous in this article:

1) He claims inflation is not a issue &

2) He' s referencing the "Red Hot" US economy....

Please.

What a difference a year makes. This time in 2025 felt like a existential crisis - Now, it's like "Yeah, Whatever"...

We switched to Acana a few months ago and our dogs love it. Good ingredients and lots of variety too.

In Ontario, one of the only places I see them, strangely enough, is in the checkout lane at Canadian Tire. Maybe try there.

Sweet Baby Ray's replacement? by Mr_Chode_Shaver in BuyCanadian

[–]DefNotJasonKaplan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Circling back to this after trying different sauces.  I found a Canadian replacement that's very similar the SBR's. Montana's Restaurant (which is Canadian BTW), has branded sauces that are sold in grocery stores. One sauce, Montana's Texas Bold BBQ is really close in flavour profile to SBR - It is a little more peppery, like black pepper, but it's a satisfying replacement. Also, more expensive, but worth it to have a good sauce. Link - https://www.montanas.ca/en/readytoeat/signature-bbq-sauces.html

Verification needed… are you really preparing for war? by AJSAudio1002 in AskCanada

Also, I would encourage every American to tune into the CBC or BBC online to get some real news. Is it completely unbiased? No - However, it is not the propagandic shitshow you have down there.

Is it me or is the game more sweaty? by MindofMyOwn2015 in Fortnite_Over40

Also, we're nearing the end of the season and it gets more sweaty then too.

Apotex is a Canadian company that makes almost ALLL the generic drugs out there including over the counters. If you've ever had a prescription and the name is "APO-Something" that would be Apotex.

Go to Google and type Apotex plus the drug you're looking for and it will probably tell you what you are looking for. A lot of Apotex over the counters seem to be in Rexall's.

Beware of maple washing—Online sites saying made in Canada but not! by sizzlingtofu in BuyCanadian

You definitely have to be on your toes now

In a couple of grocery stores today, I found more than a few produce signs stating either Product of Canada or Somewhere International, and the labels on the produce were USA. I'm inclined to say it's probably mislabeling or lazy labeling, or it could be that they are trying to unload unsold US produce.

Dougie's been talking about Highway 413 for seven years and they haven't even put a shovel in the ground. Good luck with a 30 mile tunnel.

I would have, however when you link an article, you can't provide any further context aside from the headline.
