I’m German living in America near the Canadian border, at least I can cross the border giving them my money 😭❤️

jamesdnesbitt.bsky.social•1 day ago

Let us sane Americans know too!

I eat a lot of red lentils that come from Canada. (Brand GoGreen, the country of origin for the raw material is printed on the top of the package.)

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

Great, thanks! I will look for those.

Canadian Whiskey

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

Can you explain that to my wife?

birwin20.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Likely not.

I was never able to get my ex-wife to understand.

reijokalenius.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Can relate.

brainchain.bsky.social•1 day ago

I have many thoughts but let me crowd source this

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

I didn’t expect anything less 👍

willdickeson.bsky.social•1 day ago

An underrated option would be to enjoy Canadian producers on Etsy for the types of things you might get from other sources.

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

👍

guitarnut.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Thats a good point.

Warehouse One if you're looking for clothes. It's from Winnipeg where I live. They make pretty decent affordable, stylish clothes.

You're welcome.

Canada Goose?

elcanaco.bsky.social•1 day ago

Canadian artists can always use a boost.

Stream Canadian artists on Spotify (some recommendations in the thread below).

If you Google "Canadian Indigenous art" several sites come up for artwork.

If any Canadian comedians come to your city, buy tickets to the show.

our cheese is excellent

so is our fresh water fish

cod and salmon

of course maple syrup

optymystery.bsky.social•1 day ago

Anything would be appreciated. Also, BOYCOTT American.
🇨🇦🇺🇦

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

Of course 😁

erikelmgren.bsky.social•1 day ago

OK so which of these are recommended? (this is what they have available in my local shop)

optymystery.bsky.social•1 day ago

Black Velvet is good. My dad liked Wisers. We all have different tastes don’t we?

erikelmgren.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Ended up with this today

The Estonian beer to the right I really enjoyed and got another can of.

I shall now proceed to make myself a whisky sour as aperitif.

reijokalenius.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Good! I need to make my own order.

Estonian beers are pretty good 😋

optymystery.bsky.social•22 hours ago

My absolute favourite is Crown Royal Black (wow!), but I mostly consume Canadian Club. Is CC not available?

erikelmgren.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Not in my local shop. I can order or drive. Ordering is free but takes some time (state monopoly liquor shop)

optymystery.bsky.social•21 hours ago

I shall look for Estonian beer also. Thank you!

loriderchampion.bsky.social•1 day ago

That made me sad, but we should totally be boycotted. And make it hurt 😔

tazsmom.bsky.social•1 day ago

Make up, cheekbone beauty

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

Not sure that any amount would be enough to salvage this face 😂

tazsmom.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yours or trumps? Cause nothing could fix trumps, yours, you got natural beauty!

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

❤️❤️❤️

prettyhatmachine.bsky.social•1 day ago

Maple Syrup. The real stuff.

kteahen.bsky.social•1 day ago

Found this site: this is what Finland currently imports from Canada. https://tradingeconomics.com/canada/exports/finland

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

Thanks! Not much that a consumer can buy, though.

sweettechgrad.bsky.social•23 hours ago

If you like beer, Molson and Heineken are made in Canada. And for chocolate lovers, Canadians make some unique ones.

quinstep.bsky.social•1 day ago

Anything you are currently buying from US

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

Luckily not much, but one can always improve.

davidmacdougall.bsky.social•1 day ago

Stream more Justin Bieber, Celine Dion and Shania Twain on Spotify. Maybe even Drake.

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

Ok, but not from spotify. I dropped that after they started supporting trump.

armyofmeat.bsky.social•1 day ago

Maybe pass on Drake, but check out Tanya Tagaq if you’re curious about traditional Inuk throat singing

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

I don't have a choice now 😁👍

aarnegranlund.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Canada should take part in Eurovision.

jackphantom.bsky.social•1 day ago

All of them.

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

I will start looking 😀

guitarnut.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Once every two years i order my favourite shoes from The Wolf Den, deerskin mocassins.
They sell also other native people products.
Great stuff.

reijokalenius.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I have to look at some of those native people’s products, so many have mentioned them 👍

guitarnut.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Obviously Canadian brands maple sirup , also tasting the best.

reijokalenius.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Yeah, I'm thinking about buying some. But I have a surplus of my own pine cone syrup that I use for the same things 😂

mikasalonoja.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Based on your username: what are the best Canadian brands for guitars, amps or pedals?

guitarnut.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Seagull def if uou look for Martin quality.

guitarnut.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Will get back here. One great brand is i believe Seagull high end acoustic giitars

I already have a vintage collection, obviously fender/Gibson german and high end spanish concert guitars.

A LesPaul was om my bucket list. Thats not on for the tim being.
Amps, effects not my specialty.

mikasalonoja.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I have a 1974 Martin 00-21 and 1988 Gibson J-45 and considering another smallbody, fingerstyle-oriented one, used or new. Mainly because I use different tunings which is a problem live. Open to recommendations!

pkej.bsky.social•1 day ago

Canada has a very complicated relationship with mining across the world and an abmyssal relationship with indigenous people and their lands.

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

Well, so does Finland.

pkej.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yeah. I used to produce the news of Oddasat (co-production of YLE/SVT and NRK)

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

👍 I watch that sometimes.

pkej.bsky.social•1 day ago

The only reason is my enemies enemies are my friends.

1mess2many.bsky.social•1 day ago

That’s a good point. It’s something we’ve been trying to heal. If anyone’s looking for Canadian products may I suggest looking at some produced by indigenous artists?

reijokalenius.bsky.social•1 day ago

Sounds fair enough.

aucuparia.bsky.social•6 hours ago

I went to poke around for indigenous canadian leathercraft things and found myself looking at Fiskars scissors. 🫢

aucuparia.bsky.social•6 hours ago

...with a pretty glowing recommendation. We do like our orange scissors, too. 🫶

My axe and hatchet… both Fiskar.

guitarnut.bsky.social•18 hours ago

The Wolfs Den great stuff.

pkej.bsky.social•1 day ago

That would be a double whammy! A great idea
