Hey friends, many of you have requested that r/BuyCanadian itself create a big mega-directory of Canadian brands and products, and I’m very pleased to announce that this is now up!

In addition to the Directory, we have built a “Start Here!” guide to help people quickly kickstart their Buy Canadian journey, without getting overwhelmed.

Both the Directory and the Start Here! guide have been built into the subreddit’s wiki, which you can access via the links below, or in the sub’s sidebar.

Before we dive in, a quick reminder to familiarize yourself with the sub's rules, especially u/evilpig's most recent PSA!

Start Here!

"What can I do to help?"

or, "5 Easy Ways To Kickstart Your Buy Canadian Impact"

Suggestions for quick, easy, inexpensive ways to rapidly increase your impact and keep your dollars here at home.

>We’ve only gotten this far thanks to crowdsourced suggestions from this sub’s members, so let’s keep adding to the lists! I am currently the Wiki Person here in the sub, so if you have any suggestions for additions, improvements, or corrections, please reach out to me via DM.

Lastly, on a somewhat personal note, from one Canadian here to another, wherever you are:

Time and time again throughout history, Canada has proven that punching far above our weight is our speciality. This is a dark time, but we can push through it, and we will. This past weekend was a good primer on what we can expect in the coming weeks, months, and years, which means it’s time to dig in. Stay focused, stay united.

EDIT: Added new sections to the Directory list above!

EDIT2: A huge thank you to everyone submitting suggestions, especially those who do the extra legwork of vetting in advance. Keep 'em coming.
