Much of the coffee bought in Canada is sourced through U.S. middlemen and so is subject to tariffs.

    Is this the stuff that’s roasted before it gets to us? What If you get from shops that source raw beans and roast them?

      This won’t affect good coffee from local roasters that buy direct from the farms. Only shitty mega Corp coffee.

        As soon as the tariffed coffees go up, the non-tariffed will follow, just slightly lower. Why wouldn’t they?

        Tariffs=inflation. Always have.

        Interestingly, on TV CBC said the opposite: prices from the farms would go up universally to help offset the change in the massive US market.

        But I hope you’re right.
