I live in Canada and that's news to me

I feel like most of the stuff I'd be using a screwdriver on came from the US, or Japan, or somewhere else. Especially electronics

I don't know if I buy that, LTT has never targeted a Canadian audience. If anything they try to make you forget they're Canadian. They only ever say US prices for things, which makes sense since that audience is way bigger. So I don't know why they'd target a screwdriver to Canadians.

It's mainly used in construction/industrial stuff here. The bookshelves in my office are screwed to the wall using Robertson for example.

I guess maybe they wanted a more general screwdriver? They don't seem to have the smallest bits either like you might want for general electronic repair or weird bits like the tri-wing or gamebit.

They regularly reference them being Canadian, and sometimes do state Canadian prices.
