RE: "right in the billfold" and "nevertheless help our economy."

Moreover, most Canadians inclined to say, "damn right!"  Would find themselves making "yeah, but" exceptions within a day or two.  Like, at the liquor store:  "Huh?  But I want Coors Light!"  (Or Jack Daniels, or...) At the cosmetic counter:  "Oh, but I haveta have Covergirl... (or Revlon, or...) And come the weekend... "Hey!  Howcum there's only one screen at the cineplex showing anything (and it's some Canadian movie I've never heard of...)"  Or next time you sit down in front of the TV with a (Canuck) brew.  "Whoa!  Where'd the NBA/MLB/NFL game go??"  At the book store/public library:  "Whaddya mean you don't carry (BEST SELLER)??"  

Just think about alllll the Canadians who owe their living to U.S. goods and services.  So, "do not buy U.S. goods" would  hurt EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE, in every sector and walk of life in this country.  

The same is NOT true in the U.S., outside of the tourist/hospitality sector.
