Chapman's Ice Cream has just done something EVERY Canadian should know.
The largest ice cream company in Canada used to source fruit and nuts from American suppliers — for some, for over 30 years. Then, Trump imposed a 25% tariff on Canadian products.
So, what did Chapman's do?
📷 They called Italy.
📷 They called Spain.
📷 They signed multi-year contracts with European suppliers.
And the vice president said it perfectly:
"Even if Trump wakes up smarter than yesterday, we're about to sign long-term deals with other countries — and the American companies that supply them will have nothing but their eyes to cry for."
Oh, and on top of ALL that? They're COLDing their prices so that the average Canadian doesn't have to spend a single cent more.
It's a family business. No shareholders. Just the Chapman family saying: "The least we can do is make sure Canadians still have the means to buy ice cream."
That's what Canadian pride looks like.
Next time you're at the grocery store — grab some Chapman's.
Every scoop of ice cream is a vote for Canada.
I don't speak a lick of French. I've never been to Quebec. But it's their goddamn right to speak their language and have every product have both English and French on it. And any self-respecting Canadian should defend their right to do that.
Former Maple Leafs goalie and now-retired NHL alumni Jack Campbell reflected on his time playing in Toronto, saying it was the coolest experience of his career and that the biggest challenge was never the pressure from fans or the media, but the pressure he put on himself.
“Playing in Toronto was the coolest thing in the world. Waking up on game day and opening the blinds, it felt like Hockey Night in Canada every single game,” Campbell said.
“Nothing in the media or on social media could ever be as bad as the way I would talk to myself. I loved every second of having the opportunity to play there,” he added.
“Toronto, man, I can’t stop smiling. Even though I would have loved to have been there forever, my time there was the greatest time of my life.
I met my wife there. The friendships I have there are incredible… I’m just really grateful for the fans. It’s one of the coolest things to look back on.”

The difference between Canada & USA is when America is on fire we send resources to help save lives. When Canada is on fire Americans just bitch and complain about air quality
Americans truly are the worst people on earth
