How It Works

Canadian products. Canadian shoppers. One place to find them.

BannedInTheUSA.ca helps Canadians discover Canadian companies and products affected by U.S. trade actions, and makes it easy to support them here at home.

For Shoppers

Find it here. Buy it from them.

01

DISCOVER CANADIAN

Browse Canadian brands and products across protein and nutrition, clothing, beauty, food and drink, home, outdoors, electronics, auto and more.

02

SEE WHY THEY'RE HERE

Products may be featured because they have been banned from the U.S. market, subjected to additional U.S. tariffs, or otherwise affected by U.S. trade actions.

03

SHOP DIRECT

When you're ready to buy, we send you directly to the Canadian company's website. You purchase from them, not from us.

For Companies

We help Canadians find you.

If your company or products have been affected by U.S. trade actions, BannedInTheUSA.ca gives you another place to be discovered by Canadians looking to support Canadian businesses.

01

SUBMIT YOUR COMPANY

Tell us about your company, your products and how you've been affected.

02

WE REVIEW & FEATURE

We review submissions and verify relevant trade information before publishing selected companies and products.

03

WE SEND SHOPPERS TO YOU

Shoppers click through to your website. You retain the sale, fulfillment and customer relationship.

Banned isn't the same as tariffed.

We distinguish between products excluded from the U.S. market and products that remain eligible for import but face additional U.S. tariffs. Trade status is reviewed before it is assigned to individual products.

Banned in the USA

Import prohibited under a specific U.S. trade action.

Tariffed in the USA

Subject to additional U.S. tariffs.

Our Model

How we keep the lights on.

Listing a company is free. In some cases, BannedInTheUSA.ca may earn a referral or affiliate commission when a shopper follows one of our links and makes a purchase. This does not increase the price paid by the shopper.
