Content made in North America and not just brought in and assembled here.
Relax. I'm not hating on Canada. GO CANADA! woot! woot! <--(see)

So as long as the product's "content" is, let's say... more than 50% made in America, it's North American! Or nothing less than 80%... maybe that'll do it? Or perhaps it doesn't have anything to do with "content", rather "citizenship". If you're an American that owns a company with a product, you could "outsource" the whole darn thing to be produced in another country and it would still be "American", just foreign made. Just ask some American businessmen coming back from China.

"Made in America" or "Assembled in America"... I guess it matters who's pockets its lining.
