Okay so Product of Canada means 98%+ of ingredients from Canada, and processed here. Made in Canada is a lower bar with some (49%?) imported ingredients allowed with a qualifying statement, and the last major transformation has to take place in Canada.

Sounds like their polling shows people are still confused.

Time to adopt the Aussie labelling style for Made in Canada stuff so it clearly shows the percentage of imported ingredients in a nice clear graphic on the packaging.

It’s not simple here either.
