In the app, you just have to go to the shopping tab and then you'll see a tappable section that takes you to a list of Asian-owned businesses you can shop from.

There are 60 brands featured with this including Canadian ones like Vessi, Moo Shu Ice Cream & Kitchen, Theresa Duong Arts, I'll Know It When I See It, Asom and MXPC.

Following shootings in the U.S. that killed Asian women, the federal government spoke out against anti-Asian racism and Jagmeet Singh said Canada isn't immune to that kind of hate.
