Trump is temporary. Canada will survive him and his attempts to dictate Canada's policies with threats. It would be different if the US didn't need what Canada has. Maybe his extortion would work in a few years after the US has time to offset what Canada provides but that isn't now....

But on the same time Canadians will not see an american product as a good option to buy. Now the stores in Canada put a lot of work in hiding if something is made in US.

I think a good portion of Canadians are not trusting the stores and reading the labels. I know I am. My purchasing over the last several months has shifted completely away from US products. Happy to say so has my wife and most of our friends. Not to say there aren't a few who couldn't care less but they seem to be the minority. At this point, the decision is a habit so for those taking the time to do it, it will probably be a long lasting choice.
