August 2/Toronto/Marketwire -- In advance of Food Day Canada celebrations on August 4, a new BMO survey underscores Canadians' commitment to local food. The BMO study suggests that most Canadians try to buy local products when they shop for groceries and are willing to pay a premium to put local food on their kitchen tables. On average, Canadians are willing to pay 16% more for domestic fruits and vegetables and 19% more for Canadian meat products.
