Best all Canadian system

With the loony sinking to new lows, my concerns are bang for the buck (bang for the loony? sounds weird...) and not some great sense of national pride (although I have some of that too, but it doesn't really apply to audio equipment now does it?) and uncompromised (well almost...) sound quality.

The names that come readily to mind are, obviously, Bryston, Classé, PSB, Mirage, Energy, Totem, (and, less readily it seems, that other Québec speaker company putting out astronomically priced speakers, I forget), Oracle (if you insist on vinyl) and the list probably goes on, somewhat. The idea being to assemble something that sounds good as a whole (trying to avoid the over-used "synergy", oh well, there, I said it) . I am quite sure that for certain items (CD players) the choice will be limited and for others (cartridges, who needs them?) non-existent. What are your thoughts? And by the way, for our U.S. neighbours the exercise may be worth it also, since the prices of any of the above are more than competitive stateside. Thanks.
