In case you’ve just joined us here on planet Earth, for the last 30-40 years, virtually everything is manufactured in Asia. I suppose you have some magical, secret hardware store you shop at where the prices are lower, all goods sold are manufactured in Canada, and you can return merchandise and get refunds without producing proof of purchase. Canadian Tire has great selection, good staff and awesome sale prices weekly. The brands they sell are as good as anything else on the market, Mastercraft, Black & Decker, Stanley etc. And by the way, moron, supporting the growth of foreign economies is a good thing, and the whole basis of global trade…you’re proposing that we buy nothing from foreign nations, so that they have no money to buy things in turn from us….such as energy…? You must be an economics professor, your intellect shines through your very intelligent post. If you’re going to be an idiot, it’s best not to do it in public.
