Be a supporter of the Buy Canadian movement
Our mission is to showcase products that are Made in Canada, and to tell consumers where they can buy them. Through our blog The Good Shopper Blog and various social media networks, we are building an online community of like-minded individuals who are together driving this grassroots movement across the country. Get involved!
When you join the Buy Canadian First community, or make a donation, you are supporting:
Research
Our tremendous efforts to fill our product catalogue with tens of thousands of products made in Canada. Yes, we still make a lot of things in this country, but they are hard to find!
Education
Our dedication to raise awareness about the impact of our everyday buying decisions, and how much power we really have as Canadian consumers to make things better for our country and our communities!
Canada!
Buying Canadian-made products makes sense in many ways:
- It keeps our economy strong, protects our jobs and our tax base
- It reduces our carbon footprint on the environment, as products made closer to home require less transportation
- It certifies that the products we buy respect our stringent environmental, health & safety standards
- It guarantees that the people who made those products were treated fairly, and worked in safe & sanitary conditions.
Here’s how you can help
The first thing you can do is to share our site with your personal and professional contacts, and encourage them to get involved too. Buying Canadian benefits everyone!
