    It's a great story, and one that most don't believe. I just sent the link to my whole address book.

    Here's a good reference web site, for those who'd like to try to focus on purchasing products that are made in America:

    I have mixed feelings about this as the Canadian economy is pretty heavily dependent on supplying materials to the American market... but I do like the basic concept of encouraging consumers (in this case, contractors) to be educated about what products they're using.

    I thought about Canada when I replied last night, Mac... and as I consider Canada to be our ally (and good neighbor) I'd happily purchase goods with a "Made in..." tag from either of our nations.

    If it makes you feel any better, "Mac," I would have bought gasoline made from Canadian oil -- if our president would have let me...
