Is there a community on Lemmy for discussing Cancon? (Canadian-made content like books, games, etc.)
I was thinking recently that while I shifted my buying habits pretty drastically for things like groceries (to buy local and Canadian if possible), I kept the same habits for books, video games, etc.
Is there somewhere here that would be good for posting things like discussions about Canadian-made art/lit/games? Not so much in a 'buy Canadian' sense as in a 'Talk about Canadian-made culture' kinda way.
If there isn't something like this already I could create a community, though hopefully I wouldn't end up the only person posting there... If I did make one I was thinking it could be for both recent things and nostalgic/retro Cancon. (Growing up, there were cool things like Reboot or 3D animated shorts on YTV that were Canadian.)
I thought my sunflower seeds didn't germinate.
I planted more, but then the original ones came up today.
I'm growing them so my peas have something to climb on.
Canadian potting soils?
I haven't had too much trouble finding locally-produced potting soils at the garden store, but I'm unsure of how to determine quality / value compared to more well-known brands.
A couple years ago I bought a locally-made bag and it had literal plastic garbage mixed in, like someone scooped dirt out of a field and didn't sift it at all. (Admittedly probably only a reflection on that particular product.)
I've also tried PROMIX and it was okay, though a bit expensive for the size of the bags I can find. (It also looks like that one is produced in Quebec but for an American company called Premier Tech.)
Has anyone used any Canadian-made potting soils in their garden? (e.g. For raised planters or pots, etc.)
Canadian made dental floss?
Searching this, I see a couple options, mainly in the 'Eco-friendly' direction. (e.g. Made of corn husks or silk, etc.)
Has anyone found/tried a Canadian made floss? Any good? I can't seem to find any at local stores, so it seems like a lot to spend to buy a single pack of floss and ship it here.
