Their point was to whine. If we need to buy local and OP’s intention is not just to piss and moan they could give a single example, or link to a list, or start a little data base.
Even just list some tips to start figuring it out for yourself, like "go to your fridge and take out the most expensive/most used items. Find the label and figure out where it’s from. If it isn’t from Canada do a google search for “local mayonnaise” or “Ontario made cheese”, or “Toronto hot sauce” and start looking for alternatives. They aren’t the single only person living in Montreal on Lemmy, and even if they were, their recommendation could lead others to search in a different way for what they need.
I’m not disagreeing with anything said, I’m trying to encourage the whiners to also contribute, as I have been as I whine about whiners. It should be a requirement.
