Totally misses the point. I don’t think anyone I know started avoiding US products to try and “hurt” the USA, we’re not idiots thinking our tiny population is gonna have a huge impact on their economy or anything.

We avoided their products, cause they started making threats / acting hostile towards us, and we’d rather our money go to support either local Canadians, or to support companies from countries that aren’t threatening us / acting hostile. We didn’t/don’t want to be in any way reliant on someone that views us as an enemy, nor do we want to support the fascist crap that’s going on down there currently.
