Real Canadian Superstore has been fined $10,000 by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency for what the agency says were “misleading” displays about “Product of Canada” labels.
The CFIA said in a social media post on Feb. 17 that the fine relates to the use of the term, which, along with “Made in Canada,” can only be claimed if specific criteria are met for those items.
This comes as the Buy Canadian movement over the past year has seen consumers prioritizing domestically sourced goods and services, and even domestic travel destinations that support the local economy amid U.S. tariffs and threats of annexation by U.S. President Donald Trump.
