Made in Canada (French: Fabriqué au Canada) and Product of Canada (Produit du Canada) are certification marks designating a claim that Canada is the country of origin of a good. A product label for that good may use these marks, or a qualified version, to present that claim to consumers. The certification marks are voluntary within Canada but may be required on exported goods, to comply with the laws of the country of export.

The most recent domestic regulations came into force on 1 January 2009.[1] These state that the last substantial transformation of the good must occur in Canada and that a minimum percentage of the total direct costs of creation must be incurred in Canada: 51% for "Made in Canada" and 98% for "Product of Canada" marking. The legislation is enforced domestically by the Competition Bureau, the Canada Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) and Health Canada.
