CANazon is a small Chrome extension that makes Canadian brands easier to spot while shopping on Amazon.

• Made in Canada brands get a solid red maple-leaf badge.
• Canadian-owned brands made abroad get a white maple-leaf badge outlined in red.
• Recognized American brands get heavy frost and a red X.
• Click Reveal to uncover a frosted listing.
• Unknown brands stay visible.

What it looks like

Install version 0.2 from the ZIP

Chrome cannot install the ZIP directly. Unzip it first.

1. Download CANazon-0.2.zip.
2. Double-click the ZIP to extract it.
3. Open chrome://extensions in Chrome.
4. Turn on Developer mode.
5. Click Load unpacked.
6. Select the extracted CANazon-0.2 folder—the folder containing manifest.json.
7. Open or refresh an Amazon page.

To update CANazon later, replace the extracted folder with the new version and click Reload on the CANazon card in chrome://extensions.

Where it works

CANazon currently handles Amazon search results, category grids, and category-specific Best Sellers pages. Some homepage, Deals, storefront, and recommendation cards are not supported yet.

Brand matching is based on bundled title and brand lists. It is a shopping aid, not a guarantee of ownership or manufacturing origin.

Privacy

CANazon runs locally in Chrome. It has no accounts, tracking, analytics, or extension-runtime network requests.

Development

Load this repository with Load unpacked, then run:
