A majority of Canadians would be hesitant to buy U.S. goods in response to the proposed American tariff on products from Canada, according to a new survey.

The findings of a recently released Nanos Research survey suggest a tariff on Canadian exports into the U.S. would, for two-thirds of Canadians, negatively impact the likelihood they'd purchase U.S.-made goods.

On Nov. 25, U.S. president-elect Donald Trump said he would impose a 25 per cent tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico until the two countries clamped down on drugs, particularly fentanyl, and migrants crossing the border.

They still do use that sugar cane, some folk swear it's the best Coke you can drink

Puts on tinfoil hat… Ok, so I heard, the Mexicans couldn’t keep up with demand for cane sugar Coke in border towns so they had to start using HFCS to be able to pump out enough product. Because of more relaxed labeling laws they didn’t have to tell anyone.

On a more serious note, have you ever tried Jones Soda? They use cane sugar and they make the best cream soda you’re ever gonna taste. Probably harder to find now that every corner store has wiped out all beverage inventory in favour of beer. Seriously, it’s just beer and energy drinks now.

That's why I only drink water precipitated upon leaves in the morning sun

I call it Mountain Dew

You do the Dew, do you? Higher caffeine American condensed water vapour or the weaker Canadian stuff?

Only what I can collect in the morning before the sun dries it up and grizzlies come out to eat my ass

Jones Soda is great.
