Stiles’ NDP brings proposal to make it easier for people to buy Ontario-made products

The Ontario NDP’s Choose Ontario, Strengthen Ontario opposition day motion will give families the power to choose Ontario-made and Canadian-made products at the grocery store, and the right to know when a big box retailer is hiking the price of the goods they rely on.

QUEEN’S PARK – Marit Stiles and the Ontario NDP will be using their first Opposition Day to bring real solutions that strengthen Ontario as the province faces unprecedented economic challenges from Trump’s tariffs.

“It’s simple, we will require grocery giants like Loblaws and Sobeys to clearly label when a product is made in Ontario or imported from the U.S. -- so you can choose Ontario and strengthen Ontario. We know that big grocery chains have been making record profits while your monthly bill keeps getting higher – that’s why, we will mandate them to label sudden price hikes.

“Donald Trump’s reckless tariffs and senseless threats to our sovereignty are no joke, and people across our country are taking a second look at how they can use their hard-earned money to support Canadian businesses.

“We are giving Premier Ford the opportunity to say yes to helping people Choose Ontario-made products. Lets help families make informed choices, keep more money in their pocket, and fight back against Trump’s tariffs.”

The Ontario NDP will be debating their opposition day motion on Wednesday, April 30th.
