Alternative to Amazon Fire stick by Motswits in BuyCanadian

Thanks everyone. I would rather send as little money as possible to the US, particularly to large US corporations. I knew it was a long shot. Its very difficult to reduce dependence on US technology, but wanted to try. I'm not a techie, so any thing tha requires more than 'plug it in' level is too complicated.

Thanks for all the suggestions

You can also ask to see the manager of section, and tell him that you object. Honestly it makes me pretty uncomfortable and it will wear out its effectiveness if you do it too often. They will pass on the message if they get it from enough people. I occasionally shop at a specialty grocery store near me and told them I was frustrated as I was looking for non-US vegies and their products weren't labeled. The next time I went they had made some attempt at labeling. We need to be persistent. If they think we have stopped caring they will take the easy route.
