Made in Canada

 "Made in Canada" means at least 51% of the costs were incurred in Canada. These costs include raw materials, labour and processing, with the last “substantial transformation” occurring in Canada. "Made in Canada" claims are subject to a 51% threshold of Canadian content but should be accompanied by a qualifying statement indicating that the product contains imported content.

 "Product of Canada" indicates that at least 98% of the product's total direct costs were incurred in Canada (with Canadian ingredients, labour, and processing). As with Made in Canada products, the last “substantial transformation” must occur in Canada.




I have purchased components internationally in prior years, however the last time I did this was 5 years ago. Like pretty much every jewellery maker though, I do have a tendency to hoard the pretty things, and they will still appear in current designs. Letting go is hard sometimes. 😂

 All labour, processing and transformation (I live just north of Toronto ON), and most of the raw materials and components are Canadian.

 Because of the foreign content I am proudly labelling my products as “Made In Canada”. 




Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day.
