That's not what I'm saying. I'm not saying that a device sold anywhere in the world can't have a CE mark -- that's not it, at all. I'm also not saying that a person or company can't seek to get a CE mark for their product from wherever they are in the world (they certainly can do that).
There's a lot that I'm not saying.
What I am saying is that there are places in the world where the CE mark (and the presence or absence of it) means nothing, and that Canada is one such place.
Y'all have your own safety marks up there.
CSA is a big one -- you've had that organization up there and doing great work for over a century. cUL is another very common, accepted mark in Canada.
There are many more. Here's the list: https://scc-ccn.ca/resources/publications/recognized-canadia...
But, again: The Standards Council of Canada doesn't recognize the CE mark for devices used in Canada. That's not a thing that they do.
