Generic toothpaste, not any "super organic, green healthy" nonsense. I want fluoride and lots of it.

It's very difficult to find non-US coffee filters!
I'm planning to try out reusable cotton filters, at least that's a one-time purchase.

Thayers Witch hazel facial toner. I have seen a couple of Canadian products but not with the same/similar ingredients.
Eatthwise is a Canadian brand that does an unscented witch hazel hydrosol but it won't have the glycerin and other additives in Thayers
Thanks. At least this one is alcohol free. Maybe I pick some up to try out. I still have some Thayers so should be easy to compare.
Tooth floss and kids toothbrushes (or adult brushes with smaller heads).
Appliances.
Dishwasher.
I damn near bankrupted myself to buy a Bertazzoni induction range. Zero regrets. It ain't Canadian but the EU are homies (mostly) and have some damn nice appliances. We have a Bosch dishwasher that was made in Germany and I didn't realize that dishwashers could actually wash dishes until I got it (ten years old and still works beautifully).
Shit's expensive as hell so there's a lot of privilege that goes into my 'damn the cost' strategy and it definitely isn't for everyone.

I see a Bristow Iron Works in Ontario, but their website is down. They have a Facebook page, but I have it blocked. From what I can see it is 4 years expired.
I emailed the company asking what's up and this is the response I received (not verbatim as I redacted some non-relevant information):
Yes the website is down because we are reorganizing our business.
We did custom direct orders but have discontinued Made in Ontario cast iron. We used a foundry to pour the actual product but all finishing and seasoning was done by us. During the end of Covid foundries only wanted to handle multi million dollar accounts. So we made the decision stop producing Canadian made cast iron.
My husband is continuing the custom iron works.
Hope you understand.
