"That's a boycott": BC grocer hasn't sold any US produce for over 117 days

Описание: A grocery store in Victoria, B.C., has avoided selling U.S. produce for 117 days.

Garth Green, general manager of Urban Grocer, says when U.S. Donald Trump launched his trade war on Canada in March, they decided to pull all U.S.-grown produce from the shelves.

And so far, it’s been a big success.

“We’re, you know, just really trying to promote the local farms,” he said.

“And the Canadian farms. And so it’s been very, very good for us. The customers have been very appreciative of it.”

The experiment has not been without its challenges.
