Default Made in...Canada?

I took my rear bumper off today and stamped on the inside next to the Chrysler logo it said, "Made in Canada". What up with that? I thought I was driving around in the "American Legend"

As a Canadian, I feel insulted by this remark. Who cares if parts are made north of your bordrer. We're neighbours. You're acting as if it was made in China or something. If the Jeep was a "Canadian legend" and the bumper was American, I wouldnt be bitchin about it on here. Atleast it's not something from another continent. Then I would understand where you're coming from. End of rant....
