Obviously not an absolute. But, imo, it is better than doing nothing. I do my best to check labels on everything. I am not naive enough to think there won't be out-surced components. However, I would rather buy: Made in Canada/USA before Assembled in Canada/USA, and Assembled in Canada/USA before Made in China.
