Who knew Canadians cares so much about Ketchup?

The irony is that Heinz does still do business in the community so a boycott doesn't make things better. And it's not like the Ketchup is made in Leamington. The tomato paste is shipped to Ohio to be sent back as Ketchup.

And then there's the Beaverton's tongue-in-cheek reminder ...

Local man proud of Canadian-made ketchup from tomatoes

picked by temporary foreign workers

We needed to stand up for the jobs I would never work at, explained Matheson. When I eat a hot-dog, I want it covered in Canadian ketchup produced by foreign workers in back-breaking conditions, not American ketchup produced by foreign workers in back-breaking conditions.

When Loblaws finally relented and returned the ketchup to their shelves, Matheson rejoiced that his beloved tomatoes were back in bottles being sold by Frenchs, a US-based corporation.

?

But they're our workers regardless, supporting families and spending some of their earnings in local venues.
