“미국 제외한 뭐든지”…캐나다에서 미국 거부 운동 격화

Trade tensions between the United States and Canada have intensified, with Canadians rejecting American products. Following the failure of trade negotiations under President Donald Trump's administration, the protests against American goods have grown. Trump, who previously referred to Canada as the 51st state, has been antagonizing Canada with tariffs and name changes.

In January, he renamed the Ontario river "America River," setting off a wave of American boycotts. Canadians are increasingly avoiding American products, with local governments promoting provincial goods and implementing labeling systems. The Ontario government even cancelled contracts with American companies, affecting tourism.

The Canadian public is becoming more aware of product origins, with 40% of Canadian consumers checking where their food is made.
