The Heinz ketchup boycott is a fascinating case study, and serves as a lesson to US companies about Canadian consumers.

Heinz exited Canada in 2014, moving manufacturing to the US, using US tomatoes.

Remember when critics demanded that PM Carney repay taxpayers the cost of his trip to visit the UK PM, because he didn’t have a seat in Parliament?

This is a post about Stornoway.

It's been my experience that you can generally tell how far ahead someone is by how far back the other side reaches to find an alleged smear... Thirty years is desperation territory...

We thank everyone for supporting the boycott of American products. But please buy Lays chips. There are 1200 union members with the Steelworkers at the plant in Cambridge and they need your support.
Boycott American plants but support the jobs here in Canada.

Lisa Raitt “everything that happened in the past is the past” meaning Harper’s praise of Carney doesn’t count in the present. And this woman is head of private equity at Canada’s largest bank? That’s just so illogical.

I have an odd family.
We took the cat along for holiday photos at the dogs’ school. He kind of stole the show!
I’d love to see your festive pet photos! 🎄
