In BC, look for BuyBC. The province has been pretty on top of a labelling/awareness campaign long before Trump found the word tariffs in his colouring book.

It used to be until Restaurant Brands International bought it out and stopped making donuts in-store, changed their coffee brands, and started importing foreign workers (paying them less than minimum wage).

I was told that my local grocery store (in BC) will also be labelling all Canadian products as well.
Tim Hortons isn’t Canadian but New York Fries is. What a country!
