• President Donald Trump's 50% tariffs on about $20 billion in Canadian goods went into effect this week.
• This prompted "dollar-for-dollar" retaliatory tariffs from Canada.
• To push back, some Canadian businesses started displaying "Made in Canada" labels in their stores last spring.
• For some Canadians, staying more local has taken on a more literal meaning, like buying outdoor gear from Ontario or snowskates from British Columbia.
• But shopping locally doesn't come without a price, from analyzing "made in" labels to paying more for product swaps.
