Check the Labels
With the world COVID-19 pandemic straining everything we do, we need to help our nation and fellow Canadians to rebound as quick as possible.Yes, our federal and provincial governments are aiding with billions of dollars of aid to laid of workers and companies affected from being non-essential, to help with the social distancing.
But this money is not from a secret stash and we all know that it will be asked for in the near future as increases in sales tax and reduction of services.
So,when it comes to your purchasing decisions, take time to check the label and see where it was fabricated, made or sourced.
This alone will help businesses get to have their employees back to work, a kick start to the economy we need to have.
(One thing that peeves me off when I check the label and all it says is "Prepared for Loblaws/Sobies/Metro" as it could have been prepared anywhere in the world and we wont know where.)
No, I am not advocating boycotting any other nations goods or services, but this simple task will help Canada's economy get back on some sort of "new normal"even sooner.
Stay safe, and will see you on the trails soon.
