How we price this in Canada

Canadian national base ranges come from named Canadian retail-parts and servicer sources. We localize them with Job Bank NOC 72402 provincial wage relatives — there is no Canadian equivalent of the U.S. Regional Price Parity, so the price and overhead terms stay at the national baseline. The localization method and named, dated sources are on the methodology page.
