Came across this marketplace launched by Canada Post, via a flyer they sent out surprisingly. It focuses on Canadian businesses (and seems to prioritize Canada made too, from what I can tell so far).

I'll give them some slack for the moment. Creating a marketplace from scratch takes work and this looks like it's still in Beta. Selection is a bit thin still as well. Otherwise I fully approve of the idea, and I can't think of a better place to do it than through Canada Post.

But yeah, I'm not going to lie, a way to exclude or at least de-prioritize American producers would not hurt MY feelings at all. I'll take Made in China over made in US even if its a Canadian product developer, and Made in Canada above all.
