Our Canadian score
Imported
Cascade Platinum Plus is not a Canadian detergent. Procter & Gamble owns it, and the plant on record is St. Louis, not a Canadian town.
Score breakdown (60% evidenced, medium confidence)
“When Procter & Gamble finally debuted its liquid formulation in the late 1980s, the company began to consolidate Cascade production at its St. Louis plant.”
This score is our own read of publicly available evidence, not a regulatory finding. It is not a CFIA or Competition Bureau origin determination, and it is not the same as the "Product of Canada" or "Made in Canada" claims a manufacturer prints on a label.
