In light of the newly imposed U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods, the Filipino-Canadian Chamber of Commerce – Greater Vancouver (FCCC-GV) is rallying the community to respond with unity, resilience, and purpose. These trade measures pose a serious challenge to Canadian businesses, especially small and medium enterprises that form the backbone of our economy.
FCCC-GV’s #BuyCanadian #SellCanadian #GrowCanadian campaign is more than a slogan—it’s a movement. It empowers everyday citizens to make conscious choices that support local producers, and it equips entrepreneurs with strategies to weather economic uncertainty. Through a series of infographics and outreach efforts, the Chamber offers practical guidance on how to:
- Adapt spending habits to prioritize Canadian-made goods and services
- Strengthen local supply chains and reduce dependency on foreign imports
- Foster economic resilience by investing in homegrown innovation and talent
This initiative is a reminder that economic sovereignty begins at home. By choosing Canadian, we not only protect jobs and businesses—we reinforce our shared identity and future.
FCCC-GV invites all Filipino-Canadians and allies to spread the word, support local enterprises, and stand in solidarity during this pivotal moment. Because when we lift each other up, we all rise.
