At Provigo, the product was displayed at $ 13.54 Thursday, against $ 11.99 previously, before suddenly disappearing from the website of the supermarket chain which belongs to the Ontario giant Loblaw.

At Maxi, the discount brand of the same group, the price is $ 9.50. The “tariff” label is affixed to indicate to customers that the product is affected by Canadian counter-tale.

At IGA, we always offer the container of 2.63 liters of tropicana orange juice at a price of $ 10.99 Thursday. At Walmart, the price was $ 9.96.

For lovers of savings, orange juice in homemade brands, produced by Lassonde from Brazil oranges or other countries, is significantly cheaper. The 2.5 -liter container sells $ 6.50 at Maxi, $ 6.59 at Super C (on sale this week at $ 5.99) and $ 7.99 at Metro.

Recall that in March, Ottawa imposed counter-triggers of 25% out of $ 30 billion in American imports.

The list of affected products includes orange juice, peanut butter, spirits, wine, coffee, household appliances, clothes, shoes, motorcycles, cosmetics and certain paper products.
