I'm curious if/where Zenith had a factory up there, I couldn't find anything on Google. Maybe one of our Canadian friends can enlighten us.

The firm I worked for, for 33 years, also built products for the Canadian market. One of the engineers told me they were extremely fussy about their listings and inspection proceedures. The nameplate department would just stamp the letters CSA on the nameplate. That didn't go very well, as the company had to buy a special steel stamp, with the genuine CSA logo.
