Rush -> Rash?

Shalom!

I buckled and edited to show a screenshot, because apparently that's more important than the Premier of a Canadian province providing support to MAGAts.

Thanks for recognizing why I linked target than screenshot, even if you are in the minority.

Le sigh. I didn't realize just viewing the image and just viewing the image was such a challenge.

I specifically wanted to link to the source. I had considered taking a screenshot, in case the page changed, but apparently I overestimated people's ability to simply view a page without submitting a donation.

Because that's where the image is with Danielle Smith. I didn't have any problem not donating.

Exactly.

There are lots of factories that are just private label, making products for other brands.

I know from ketchup discussions, the old Heinz facility in Leamington ON is now Highbury Canco. They don't disclose who their customers are,but in pictures I can make out what looks like Classico pasta sauce.

Back in the day, Cotts was the #1 pop in Canada, because they made the pop for Presidents Choice. There's another big pop facility in Alberta as I recall, that is just not memorable at all that probably does Western Family.

One problem with the house brands is that they intentionally obfuscate the specific origins. In fact, No Name and President's Choice used to have in house factories for some of their products but it wasn't obvious which.

There are labeling laws though, so if a house brand says made in Canada, you know that at least.

House brands of Canadian retailers are often a good way to buy a variety of made in Canada products.

I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised if the final platform had room for national partner tweaks. Probably could call ours the Arrow 2: Strange Brew or something.

Heinz used to make ketchup in Leamington ON, with locally grown tomatoes. They closed it down in 2014, choosing to bring ketchup in from other facilities in the US.

Heinz had also started making mustard, the main product of French's. French's decided to take advantage of the opportunity to strike back and took over the old Heinz facility in Leamington and began making ketchup out of the same tomatoes that Heinz had been using in Canada.

Since then, French's has been bought out by McCormick, and moved production to London, ON. The Leamington Facility is now Highbury Canco, and it does private label manufacturing. Heinz has restarted ketchup production in Montreal, using tomato paste from the Highbury Canco plant, their own old facility.

Meanwhile Primo Foods makes a ketchup, made in Canada. Primo is owned by Sun-Brite, a Canadian company, so that's the trifecta. There's also that old plant in Leamington, Highbury-Canco that does private label/co-pack. Canada has lots of food manufacturing, at places like Delmar Foods, Luda, Hall's Kitchen, Giraffe Foods. This means when you buy a house brand from a Canadian retailer like Western Family or Compliments, there is a decent chance it's made in Canada by one of these private label manufacturers.

I've been advocating joining GCAP, an effort by Japan, UK and Italy to make a 6th gen fighter. It isn't scheduled to deliver the final design until 2035 though, so we would still need a stopgap.

Still, it would send a pretty strong signal and also allow as a path to reinvigorate our domestic aerospace defence industry.

Good point on the consistency. Timmie's coffee is very consistent. Regardless of your personal opinions on Timmie's coffee in general, you can be certain that the coffee you get tomorrow in Kapuskasing will be the same as the coffee you got yesterday in Kitimat.

yeah and that...

The irony will take the sting out if a Liberal-NDP split lets the Conservatives skate up the middle.
