[Sprague Cannery 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 @SpragueFoods]

Tariffs may still feel abstract to many, so let me share something tangible to help everyone better understand the gravity of the situation.

We employ 50 people at our Canadian cannery. A significant portion of our business is with US customers. For decades, we’ve operated under free trade and structured our business accordingly.

Food canning is highly competitive, and we operate on thin profit margins.

From March 4 to March 7, a 25% tariff was imposed on Canadian imports to the US. For shipments during just this short period, our customers were taxed a combined total of $26,632.12 USD. We've offered to absorb these costs to maintain our customer relationships for now.

This arrangement isn't sustainable. 25% is simply too high of a tariff to absorb on an ongoing basis. If these tariffs persist, we risk losing a substantial—and the most profitable—portion of our business.

Unless we make up for these losses in the Canadian market, it will lead to significant job losses and could even put us out of business completely.

That's why we're urgently appealing to Canadian retailers: please list our products and other products made by Canadian food manufacturers affected by these tariffs. Do it now, please!

We must swiftly respond to this economic warfare to protect Canada’s domestic food and beverage manufacturing industry. This is a matter of food sovereignty and security. We are being attacked!

Canadian customers, please ask your local managers to list more Canadian products in place of US products. This is urgent!

I don’t know what may happen with H5N1. Had Premier @fordnation heeded the advice of his own Scientific Advisory Committee and strengthened the wastewater viral surveillance program instead of abolishing it, I might have some confidence in Ontario public health. Instead…

Canadian experts are calling for provinces to share data with the Federal government so we can have a clear picture of covid. Covid is one of the top causes of death. Monitoring it needs provincial data but that is now less forthcoming coming. https://t.co/HhWJJwwpDy

This was one of the studies I had mentioned.
We are just scratching the surface of how COVID wreaks havoc on the body.
The long term burden on healthcare and every facet of society going forward is incalculable.

So, let me get this straight...

The same hospitals who refuse to mask up, let alone wear respirators...

Who refuse Engineering Solutions, like AutoUV, Upper Air UV, FarUV, self-disinfecting surfaces & sinks...

Are calling for "INNOVATION"

To solve their Healthcare Crisis?

Tim Walz has ZERO f*cks to give:

“At McDonald's, he looks more like Ronald McDonald and Ronald wears less makeup. Everything about this guy is fake - next he's going to tell you he's a cop or construction worker because he dances to the Village People."

The attitude that chronic illness is a moral failing is one that hurts me the most. People seem to feel it more strongly since Covid. Those who know me know how healthy I was… until I wasn’t. Disability can & does strike everyone - it does NOT mean you failed or “deserved” it.

Since PH gave up and decided people were on their own and expendable, they have been quieter than a mouse pissing on a cotton wall.
The ramifications will be long lasting and extreme.

Coachella mess

The venue where Trump held the rally is in the middle of nowhere and 5 miles from parking.

The cult was lured in with bus rides to get in to the venue and then abandoned when it was over.

This is the perfect metaphor for a Trump presidency.

Who has a slogan?

Studies coming soon suggest chronic COVID may lead to a wider range of potential conditions than previously anticipated.
Four 1/2 years after the onset of the pandemic, we are only beginning to comprehend the full extent of its impact.
If this revelation causes alarm, it should

Here is an idea- how about raising ODSP and other social services to a UBI instead of taking photo ops at the foodbank while your newest PC MPP gets a 12% raise before starting work?
