As more and more Canadian consumers boycotted American products, Canadian retailers began strengthening their country of origin labeling and opening up more sources other than the US, and the shelves of major supermarkets changed dramatically as a result. The Ontario supermarket “Vince Market” recently received negative reviews and angry consumer e-mails criticizing the supermarket for stocking American products. To this end, the company's president Giancarlo Trimarchi was busy explaining to consumers on social media that most of the products displayed on the supermarket shelves were actually made in Canada. In an interview with Reuters, Trimarchi said that currently about 90% of the products sold in the four supermarkets under the company's name are produced in Canada. He said that in the past, the company “needed to balance price and quality; now it needs to balance price, quality, and origin.” In August, Canada's largest food retailer Loblau once again used large maple leaf markers to mark agricultural products and fresh food produced in the country, and introduced a capital English letter “T” mark to mark products affected by US tariff policies.
