Eatthwise is a Canadian brand that does an unscented witch hazel hydrosol but it won't have the glycerin and other additives in Thayers

This is even more rampant and unchecked on Reddit - the Buy Canadian subreddit is infested with either outright "MURRICA FUKKKIN A BRO" types or the more subtle "concern trolls"


"Won't you miss this product? What will you do when you can't afford things anymore? Don't you realize these companies employ Canadians - why do you want to hurt your neighbours?" Yeah - not here for that noise.

I think Amazon's entire labour model is one giant workplace safety violation to be honest. Cut them off a month ago and yes for certain items I have to search and wait but oh the money I have saved.

Hahaha that isn't northern Ontario and it's an incredibly expensive area as it's basically prime cottage country for wealthy Torontonians. If a small town has bougie options you know it is likely part of cottage country. You need to look further north if you want to save money and actually live in the north.

Opti-Rinse and Denta-Rinse from Manta Pharma based in Brossard QC or Oro-NAF which is from another Quebec dental company. Both are available online if you can't find them in your local drugstores.
