In again, another example of corporate enshittification:

Campbell's Soup, which isn't Canadian and is not produced in Canada has put maple leaf symbols on their marketing. SPECIFICALLY to confuse consumers. The maple leaf is not a protected symbol, they just...decided to add it.

Edited for clarity and updated information!

Spotted this in a shoppers while I was just out too. I'm pretty sure this has been on their cans for a while but it's also garbage.

A can of Campbell's chunky soup with a little label "Designed in Canada"

Attached: 1 image Worth noting there are a few version of Campbell's soup can packaging out there so I took a screenshot of this one for sale on amazon.ca (there's a double whammy for you). Note that the address on this Campbell's soup can is just a last-mile distribution facility. There has been no production at this location since 2018. It is not, in fact. "prepared in Canada". #maplewashing #mapleturfing #BuyCanadian #Canada

@lester Oh, wow, I hope no one's falling for it.
