Sure, but we don't make trade agreements with individual states. This isn't a State issue, it's a Nation to Nation issue

Yes, the boycotts hurt business owners and individuals who didn't vote for Red, just add it hurts those who did vote Red.
If business owners are feeling the impact, they call pressure their elected representatives.
Canadians can and are voting with their money.

People have communicated LOUDLY, for months, the reason for the boycotts. It's been in the news regularly, story after story, interview after interview.

The analogy of smacking a dog out of revenge doesn't hold. This isn't revenge. This is refusing to participate in an abusive relationship. Canada didn't betray a long-standing trade partner and ally. The threats of annexation & the tariffs are serious. Canadians aren't going to forgive & forget.

Many people I know are avoiding buying American because of tariffs. It's an economic protest of US government policy, less so of individual companies or states. Buying some American goods because of their state of origin would defeat the purpose of the boycott

chickpeas, or lentils? Lentils can pretty much disappear into a soup or sauce. Chickpeas are so versatile - in a stew, roasted, as hummus.

So good live! Their bass player was one of my summer camp leaders when I was like 14 or 15. The group of us teenagers would go downtown and watch them busk.
I'd love to hear their second album

I was prescribed trazadone about a year ago and I can finally get restful sleep. I tried hydroxyzine before that but it caused tinnitus, which made sleep impossible. (And that's how I found out some medication can be ototoxic, i.e. toxic to the ear)

The hurt is mostly numb. Now I just wish I'd stop remembering her.
I'm tired of thinking about people who clearly don't give a shit about me.
