I mean, I am doing those things. I'm also just curious as to why we're so focused on alcohol. It's probably because it's one of the things where it's easy to find non-American alternatives. But maybe because there's a lot of Coca Cola bottling locally in Canada people don't care?

Either way, I've been looking around for Canadian candy to give away for Halloween. Hawkins Cheesies and Rockets might be it.

Yes. Believe it or not, the coke and pepsi being made in Canada makes people feel significantly less pressure to boycott them. Believe it or not, this makes sense when you think about how most people make decisions and the factors involved in those decisions.

Being smug about it doesn't change it.
