    I took the initiative and actually emailed their support email address and asked them how much of the company is based in Canada. Hopefully I hear from them soon!

    I hope it is not a situation where the studio just happened to be founded/owned by a Canadian. A Canadian owning a company does not make it a Canadian company – by that logic, twitter/x is a Canadian company.

    I think this community should decide what exactly constitutes a “Canadian Game” or Studio.
