Is there any synthetic oil that is made in Canada? I know that Castrol Edge used to say "made in Canada" on it but I'm not sure if it does anymore. I heard that Petro Can comes from the US.
Made in Canada?

I've been running both 5w30 and 10w30 Castrol Edge in my Honda and both proudly state "Made in Canada".
I recently bought two 5l jugs of "Klondike" synthetic motor oil (in 5W-40) and the jugs alluded to Canada.
I don't recall if they read, "Made in Canada" or if the corporate address listed was Canadian.

That’s too thick.
Even when it gets to optimum operating temp?

Hard to say. Their webpage only states "North American Made". No other mentions in the PDS or sales literature.
Canadian Pennzoil, Quaker State, and Castrol bottles say they are blended in Canada from foreign and domestic components.
The QS below is not synthetic but the syn version also has this statement.

When I lived in Maine, Irving Oil had a lot of gas stations / convenience stores there--I believe they had their own motor oil blends, but I can't quite recall. . .

Depends on what type of tree it comes from.
Usually its a very thick viscosity but stable due to no VII.

The Heath one is on point
WPP on the bottom of Klondike jugs and pails. Warren Petroleum Products, just like Walmart and Costco.
The Petro Canada branded products I buy are blended and packaged in Canada.
The group 3 capable lube plant, built in the late 90s is in Patman’s backyard.

Motomaster Canadian Tire Oil is currently Shell sourced, IIRC.

WPP has been Warren Highline (Equity Firm) for at least three years now. Not sure why the plastic oil jugs still read WPP. Maybe someone here at BITOG might know why.
Carquest house brand oil is Made in Canada. Made by the people who make April Super Flo. The synthetic is API SP and Dexos certified. Occasionally it goes on sale. Picked up a jug of 5w30 a year ago for 32 bucks and I think it was on sale around Christmas and New Year’s.
The Castrol products have to be looked at individually. The shelves at Canadian Tire have Castrol from Canada, USA and Belgium. Here are a couple products blended and packaged in Canada, from domestic and foreign components. They don’t limit themselves with where is comes from. Wakefield Canada is doing the packaging

Irving in New Brunswick has a contract to provide gear oil branded under the Canadian Tire Motomaster house blend. I have it in my 3/4 ton rear diff.
