Are consumers really saving money by buying so many items labelled "Made in China." I am not convinced.
I've been seeing these stamped out metal items in garden centres all around the London area. They are simply large sheets of very thin steel with a stamped out pattern. The piece has been painted to resist the elements.
How much would this cost to make in Canada? The ones made in China are selling for about $170 at some centres.
Have you questioned the savings you enjoy by buying stuff made in China? I'm old enough to recall when shirts, toys, appliances and more were all made in Canada and the States. When the plants started closing I did not notice a big drop in the prices of these goods. Did you? Think about it.

Considering the rampant belligerence alone coming from the Chinese government, it's better not to buy from them.
