Can Canada create a food labeling system similar to this?

It’s confusing trying to buy Canadian with all the variations of made in, assembled in, grown in, packaged in, etc. Can we copy the Australian food labeling system, perhaps replacing the kangeroo with a maple leaf? I find this much clearer.

    Also don’t let go of your “standard drink” stuff on the side of piss. I loved that while I was there. Sure I can guess how much alcohol I’ve had in the last couple hours by reckoning my 3 or 4 beers had 5%, 6.5%x2, and 8% and this means I’m tipsy. But it’s so much easier to understand how drunk I am when it’s 1+1.5+1.5+2=6 standard drinks.

    It’s just a good system despite the many flaws.
