Default Canadian rear shocks?

About to purchase a new rear rock and see that an ACDelco
"ACDELCO 540170 {#25752922} GM Original Equipment
Flag indicates this part fits vehicles sold in the Canadian Market. It does not indicate where the part was made -- manufacturers produce parts in multiple factories worldwide. Rear; Special Susp(FE4)
Part is designed for CA Market vehicles"


I'm assuming this is the same part either way, but no idea why. Could it be resistance to cold temps?

Rest assured, these shocks will also be VERY polite and friendly...unless it's hockey season.

Well with no Canadian teams in the playoffs this year they should be plentiful!

I think we were making the same joke, just different sides of the same pointy stick.
