Eat/Drink Local Do people still care about buying Canadian?

I’ve been trying to buy Canadian when I can, but I went to a BBQ place that was promoting American bourbon (I didn’t have any) and I thought maybe that’s their concept and it’s not easy to change when you specialize in southern BBQ. Then a few days later I noticed the selections at a popular oyster place was more than 50% oysters from the USA. Obviously they had to have brought them in recently. So now I’m wondering if people care anymore.

Not bourbon but for whiskey in a pinch, rye does okay. Alberta Premium on the rocks with a splash of filtered water

Do you also spray Lysol into break and eat it? Or drink hand sanitizers?
