Portable gasoline containers must be approved by which organizations?

In Canada, safety certification for portable gasoline containers comes from recognized testing organizations. The two main bodies are ULC (Underwriters Laboratories of Canada) and CSA (Canadian Standards Association). A container that carries the ULC mark has been tested to meet the applicable safety standard, and the same goes for a container with the CSA mark. Because either organization’s certification is acceptable, the correct choice is that approval can come from either ULC or CSA. The requirement to have both marks would be unnecessarily strict and isn’t how certification typically works.
