and I’m American.
You're not American, you're a hero. 😀

From a “where does the money go” perspective, that is not true.
When I was researching this, basically the conclusion is that if a product is made in Canada (even if the company is American), you are supporting the workers, but then the workers are likely spending their money within the country, too. This is amplified if the ingredients/materials of that product are also from Canada.
Yes, supporting an American company is still bad, for sure. I don't disagree.
But if the choice, for example, is to buy from a Canadian company that's importing from the States (many examples I've found just at the grocery store), or an American brand that makes their products in Canada using Canadian ingredients, go with the latter!
Fortunately, we aren't always forced to make that decision, and can go with NotAmerican products and brands for a large number of items. That's why Buy European is something I also follow (as a Canadian).
Ah, so it is because of bikes! /s
It's actually more important that the product be made in Canada, rather than who owns the company, since it would employ more Canadians and return more money into our economy.
I'm not sure where Pedigree makes their treats, but if it's in Canada, it gets a Maple Leaf.
But ideally, you do want a Canadian-owned company making goods in Canada using Canadian ingredients and hiring Canadian workers.
Goddamn brilliant!
Is this a mensa entry test? 😂
Thank a veteran! Who do you think this money is being stolen from?
Martha Stewart went to jail on much less than this. Seize all their assets, and throw as many as you can in jail.
Oh wait, you can't because your Rapist in Chief has put other criminals in charge of things, while firing anyone with a moral compass.
Do either make gaming headphones, though? I think the OP was specific, and I'm not familiar with their product lines.
Are you looking for specifically "Made in the Europe" or European brands? Because Logitech is Swiss, and probably the easiest to find something that works for you.
SteelSeries is also Danish.
But I'm sure neither manufacturers in Europe.
I remember that late night talk shows basically said that they don't have to write comedy during Trump's first term, because everything he was doing was comedy. This second term is far darker, but the lunacy of what's happening on a daily basis makes all comedy and satire writers obsolete!
Even actual news reporting on serious things like "explaining Trump's tariffs", end up being almost unbelievable, like you have to question whether what you're listening to actually happened or not. Take a few minutes to learn about how Trump's team came up with the tariff numbers, and you'll think that you're watching a Pixar movie.
I did a full memtest and chkdsk BEFORE installing Linux (I'm dual booting right now), and things were fine. Again, I only seem to be having issues in Linux, not Windows (native or through virtualbox!).
Even just now, Digikam is crashing, but it won't let me force quit (waiting just brings up the window again).
