You know, I was actually relieved to hear he knows we're not getting a full resumption of free trade.

I'm kind of fed up with Ali Express at this point. Nothing actually gets delivered. Does anyone know any other Amazon alternatives?

I would love to have a Canadian alternative to Amazon.

There is some alternative, you would have to search for it. I have moved to buying stuff from Canadian retailers.

If you are a Canadian, and have some time and resources, this is the time to make yourself the "Alternative to American tech". I would really like to see some initiatives from the Government on this, but citizens can take the lead and get it started to show the Government there is something to invest in.

Amazon is a logistics company, not a retail company. Replacing Amazon means using Canada Post more than it means shipping at Canadian tire.

How do you manage the actual purchase and initial shipping from the supplier? Not everyone is going to have their own independent storefront, I assume.
