What is even worst is that the only beer can top lid manufacturer is in the USA and probably using Quebec aluminum....... let's make our own tops....
From a consumer opinion, I'd accept the old ways of opening beer with a church key instead of the easy way, if it means much simpler construction. And, every kitchen drawer and toolbox gets a newly made Canadian stamped can opening. From a manufacturing perspective, a conventional solid top is a disc with a spun perimeter fold. The convenience top has many clever creases and impressions to create tearable weak sections. That engineering is more complex.
