Shoppers are shunning Kentucky bourbon, California wine and Florida oranges, and avoiding American companies like Starbucks, Walmart and McDonald’s, Canadian network CTV News reported on Wednesday.
On Twitter, hashtags like #BuyCanadian, #BoycottUSProducts and #BoycottUSA are spreading as outrage over Trump’s trade tariffs grows.

Well, OV and Kuz were Russians in Washington, which are more or less Americans.

Actually they likely will if one of the Canadian players brings the cup on tour . But even it they don't it wasn't Americans that won the cup you guys suck ass at hockey when your forced to use your own players and not just buy someone else's .

I've already started boycotting Canadian products ever since the G7 Summit hit the news. I've been checking the products I'm about to buy at the grocery store and I make sure the label doesn't say, "A product of Canada"....and no more Molson beer. It's not like Canada really makes good beer anyway. It's probably made from Moose piss.
