Yeah kinda. I don’t think it’s required to have bilingual labeling in all provinces in Canada but Doritos are “Zesty Mordant” across the country because it’s too much of a pain in the ass to have different labeling in different provinces.

But there are many things that are traditionally produced and used locally where that’s not the case. Every province has different building codes and building materials made in one province may not be up to code in another province.

Agriculture has similar issues.

A lot of it is just it doesn’t have the required label from a particular provincial official that prevents something from being sold in a province it wasn’t made it. Just stupid red tape stuff.

If we’re going to change our building codes we should mandate that lumber be cut in metric.
