Canada had (has?) a similar problem:

The breakdown in negotiations was mostly due to Canada’s insistence on the UK loosening its food safety regulations, according to several people familiar with the matter.

Canada’s agriculture and food processing market is geared toward exporting to the US, where practices such as chemical carcass-washing and hormone-injected beef and pork are commonplace. In the EU, and the UK by virtue of its former membership of the bloc, such practices are banned.

In 2018, journalistic group Investigate Europe released a video documentary via German public television network ARD that claimed that the majority of city workers were satisfied with the operating system, with council members insinuating that the reversal was a personally motivated decision by lord mayor Dieter Reiter. Reiter denied that he had initiated the reversal in gratitude for Microsoft moving its German headquarters from Unterschleißheim back to Munich.

Maybe MS will have to move again.

Meyer makes

Are they made in Canada though?

Canadian Owned: No

If you’re looking to buy Meyer, keep a close eye on where it’s made, as they have factories in China, Thailand, and Italy, so just because it says Meyer, it may not be made in Canada. Their website is pretty clear about what products are made in Canada, as clearly, they see this as a differentiator in the Canadian market.

The Anglicized name of the family business, a transliteration of the Chinese characters for “beautiful” and “Asia” (“mai” and “yah”), was Meyer Manufacturing Co. Ltd.
