You go to grocery stores and you see American products sitting there on the shelves while Canadian products are empty. And even I was part of this. I went to the grocery store one day and I wanted to make poutine because I guess I felt like being a stereotype. which is something you shouldn't do every day because it's heavy. Especially as you've got to get to your 40s.

Yeah, once you get into your spry early 40s, don't eat poutine every day. I'm not that kind of doctor, but I think that's solid advice. And I went in and I picked up a can of gravy and I get to the cache and I look at it and it's called Americano. I'm like, I should have noticed this earlier.

Which they have. They're not traveling to the United States either. Bookings are way down. Border crossings, both for Canadians and Americans, are way down. And this is, you know, two deeply integrated economies, both economically and culturally. A trade relationship worth a trillion dollars a year. 75% of Canadian exports go stateside.

And people all of a sudden say, no, it's both an economic and cultural imperative that I start to push back against this. And it came out of nowhere because, you know, prior to Trump trash-talking Canada, threatening Canada, and levying tariffs, this wasn't really on the radar.
