Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I buy Made in Canada products?

Buying Made in Canada supports local jobs, reduces carbon footprint from shipping, ensures products meet Canadian safety standards, and keeps money in the Canadian economy. Canadian manufacturing also tends to have higher labor and environmental standards than many overseas alternatives.

How can I tell if a product is truly made in Canada?

Look for "Made in Canada" or "Product of Canada" labels. "Made in Canada" means at least 51% of manufacturing costs are Canadian. "Product of Canada" is stricter—98% of content must be Canadian. Check company websites for manufacturing locations and avoid vague terms like "Canadian company" which may not mean local manufacturing.

What types of products are commonly made in Canada?

Canada excels in natural personal care (Attitude, Rocky Mountain Soap), outdoor apparel (Arc'teryx, Canada Goose), maple products, craft food and beverages, furniture, home textiles, and natural health products. Many smaller artisan makers also produce jewelry, ceramics, and home goods locally.

Are Made in Canada products more expensive?

Sometimes, but not always. While labor costs can be higher, you save on shipping and import duties. Quality is often better, meaning products last longer. Many Canadian brands offer competitive pricing, especially direct-to-consumer. Consider cost-per-use rather than initial price when comparing.
