99% of people don't know what aws is... buying local is mostly for physical products, food, etc. I know we're on HN but come on lol

It's called the "Buy European" movement in Europe and the "Buy Canadian" movement in Canada (aka Elbows Up). Walk into a store and there are little maple leafs on the price tag of every Canadian product.

I apologize for confusing by trying to simplify with the buy local tag, which is different.

If this alliance will be signed and has the support of people from both sides then Buy Canadian and Buy European will mean Buy European or Canadian.

We might need a new name for this in 10 years if it works.

Like Buy EuroCan or But Caneu (maybe better names)
