When it comes to shopping at the grocery store, many Canadians concerned about the current trade war with the United States are taking extra time to check labels to make sure the goods they’re buying are from Canada. Joanne Irvine from Milton, Ont., said she always tries to buy Canadian products and check labels closely. She was recently buying groceries in Walmart when she saw blackberries for sale. “I saw blackberries for sale at $3.84. I thought, ‘Not a bad price and a product of Canada.’ That’s great,” said Irvine. But Irvine discovered that while the shelf tag said “Product of Canada,” it clearly states on the blackberry packaging, “Product of USA.” Subscribe to CTV News to watch more videos: https://www.youtube.com/ctvnews Connect with CTV News: For live updates and latest headlines visit: http://www.ctvnews.ca/ For breaking news, fast, download the CTV News App: https://www.ctvnews.ca/app Must-watch stories and full programs at http://www.ctvnews.ca/video CTV News on TikT
