Are these made in Canada?

ITT: People upset that an inexpensive product is made from inexpensive materials with inexpensive labour.
Took my Camper axe out on a canoe trip this weekend. Fit well in my pack, weight was good for carrying. I liked the longer handle, compared to my Fiskars hatchet I normally bring. Axe swung good for clearing branches. Split OK with the right wood.
The edge was very dull, it was flat and blunt in spots. Took some time with a file and stones to get a usable edge on it.
The 1060 steel is no match against the steel of a Fiskars. My buddy had his Fiskars hatchet, we were splitting some tough wood, so used my Camper as a wedge, hammering with the Fiskars. The Camper mushroomed quite a bit, the Fiskars didn't even dent.
Overall a nice axe for the price. Glad it wasn't an expensive axe, as my buddy hit the back of my handle with his hatchet, splitting my handle a bit. Now to find a new handle. Tough first trip for this axe.
