G'day Paula,
Absolutely no difference whatsoever. No matter which Leica lens you come
across made in Canada or Germany.

Some times you'll find a Lens made in Canada at a better price because the
seller thinks it's not as well made as those made in Germany, there isn't
and the price is the only difference.

Go for it and have fun shooting with a leica.
