Tim Hortons pimps that “we are your national identity” shit so hard while using imported labour to sell substandard product at an inflated price.
Canadian Tire is still a Canadian company but the products sure aren’t. The time their inventory spends on the shelf is just a layover between a sweat shop and a landfill.
People should skip all fast food chains unless their locally owned.
Canadian Tire has a Paderno cookware manufatoring plant in PEI. There is also https://meyercanada.ca/ if people want to avoid CT. Their Frank chips might be made in Canada. But you’re right, most of it isn’t. But still better than say Walmart which is not Canadian owned to begin with.
Yeah there’s some things like cleaning products that are US only at the grocery store, but they have Canadian made alternatives in Canadian Tire. Don’t know why people are hating on Canadian Tire, they seem to be a little bit better than the grocery stores on this to me.

You’ve got to shop around. Some stuff you’re stuck buying online, but is worth asking the company if they’re willing to do e-transfer.
Or I could just stop into Canadian Tire on my way home from work when I need more dishwasher detergent…
Yes!
Canadian Tire is like a dollarstore now.
