Here are the items on N.S. grocery store shelves most impacted by tariffs

The Canadian government announced over the weekend it will impose tariffs on a roster of American imported goods starting Feb. 4. 

The move comes in response to U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement of his plan to place a 25 per cent tariff on virtually all Canadian goods coming into the United States, and a 10 per cent tariff on Canadian oil and gas and other energy, including hydroelectricity.

Canada plans to slap 25 per cent tariffs on $30 billion worth of American imports. The tariffs will then be applied to another $125 billion worth of American imports at the end of February, following a consultation period. 

The complete list of U.S. imports that will be subject to a Canadian retaliatory tariff includes a variety of consumer goods such as appliances, furniture, motorcycles, books and clothing. 

It also includes a number of common items on grocery store shelves, ranging from frozen strawberries to toilet paper to peanut butter.  

There are some notable exceptions. Products like infant formula, diapers, medical supplies and pharmaceuticals are not subject to tariffs when imported from the U.S.

The impact of the tariff will vary depending on the grocery item — the vast majority of chicken, eggs and milk consumed in Nova Scotia is Canadian and not imported from the U.S. However, a significant amount of the frozen fruit Nova Scotians eat is imported.

In a statement to CBC News, Sobeys said it is working to accelerate its sourcing of Canadian products as alternatives to products on the tariff list.

"We will be using all of our communication channels, including in-store, to clearly identify Canadian products and give them greater prominence," said spokeswoman Sarah Dawson. 

Here's a look at how much of some common grocery items are produced and consumed in the province:
