Toronto-Scarborough Guildwood-Rouge Park riding. Liberal voter. After the Ottawa protests I will never vote CPC ever again (1980’s was the last time I voted PC).

Love travel, cooking, art.

The only nutrients Trump seems to consume is fats, carbohydrates, & sugar?

How does he get vitamins from not eating vegetables?

I switched to Canadian made canned soup. Alymer’s made in Québec.

Unfortunately they don’t make Bean with Bacon soup so I have to make that homemade.

Since Trump came to power (Jan 20th), I’ve spent nearly $7,000 on groceries (food to cleaning products). American made goods represent 1% of this total (mostly purchased by mistake).

Some Canadians (like me) take the Trump boycott seriously.

As a Canadian 🇨🇦 I stopped buying Campbell’s soup (because it’s made in New Jersey). I don’t buy ANY American made goods anymore.

I make my own Bean & Bacon Soup. I add salt to taste.

Exactly… that’s why 4 out of 5 Conservatives use “mail order brides dot com. Because no local women would put up with their small brains & dicks.

Until marriage mail order brides have to put up with “little ding a ling”.

Trump verbatim.

If anyone else talked like this you’d think they’re nuts!

We are so used to the media just ignoring & sane editing Trump we brush it off.

Trump verbatim is clear proof that he is in mental decline.

It’s time to stop pretending he’s not senile!

Who still watches The Lawrence Welk Show?

I would think most of the fans are dead by now?

Most seniors now are hippies? They didn’t listen to “schmalzig/gemütlichkeit” (cheesy, sentimental, cozy or wellbeing music).

Hippies were into rock & roll, marijuana or LSD, not Milk of Magnesia!

Canada numerous pension funds invest globally (to reduce risk & to maximize profits).

The UAE is obviously following the same path.

I use a water ionizer & a little lemon juice in water to remove dirt on produce.

I will say, Mexican strawberries shed a lot of dirt.

Grapes from Chile release of lot of dirt too.

I wash all melons with dishwashing soap.

My parents had a condo in Puerto Vallarta Mexico for over 30 years.

I’ve learned long ago to wash everything carefully.

Canada inspects & tests many items. Plus the grocery chains in 🇨🇦 are very selective when it comes to suppliers.

Even still I wash everything carefully no matter where it’s from.

He’s from Michigan. No diplomatic training at all.

I had a Japanese friend that got shortchanged on a student exchange. Instead of going to 🇨🇦 she ended up in Lansing Michigan. The family she stayed with asked “So is Tokyo bigger than Lansing?” She looked at them for a few seconds & said “Yes”.🤨🙄

Likewise Toronto City Council needs to consider removing train crossings on Finch Ave E, McNicoll Ave, and Passmore Ave.

For American goods I cannot replace with domestic & foreign goods, I switched to making certain items by scratch.

I’ve been buying Campbell’s Bean & Bacon soup for 60+ years. Not anymore (it’s made in 🇺🇸).

I make it fresh now. It’s actually better homemade (I add less salt).

For myself… I’ve stopped buying American made goods.

My purchases of grocery items has changed.

The USA now represents 1% of my grocery expenditures. This was mostly achieved by switching to 🇨🇦 brands for soaps/detergent, fresh produce & canned goods.

Paternal Line (Y-DNA) Mismatch.
Richard's Y-chromosome DNA, which is passed from father to son, with that of five living men who trace their male-line ancestry back to Edward III, Richard III's great-great-grandfather, through John of Gaunt & the Dukes of Beaufort. There was no match.

More breakdown of foreign purchases.
November 18, 2025 at 9:16 PM
I track all my purchases since January 2025 by country now.

I had made a data entry error in tracking USA purchases. The word “sausages” contains the letters USA & my software tracked it as USA. I corrected that. My USA purchases are even lower than I thought! Less than 1% of my grocery bills.
