Pearl Milling is a Product of Canada. The others are Product of USA. I've been using Pearl since the first wave of tariffs (it's just as good). I have returned to turning Product of USA products upside down.

Not necessarily. These labels refer to the manufacturing of the product only, it does not stipulate who owns the parent company that made it.

It means that 98% or more of the money that was spent making the thing (ingredients and labor) was spent in Canada.

This is still a good thing. Buying things that are "Made in Canada"(good), "Product of Canada" (better), or "100% Canadian" (best) ensures that the majority of the money comes into or stays in Canada (unless you're working with something with profit margins over 100% which is quite rare). Anything that doesnt have one of these labels right now means that the majority of the money spent making it was spent somewhere else and the product shipped here.

The problem is almost everything is owned by the Americans.

Boycott US

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
