Just wondering who makes Wal Mart oils and filters?

P.S. Is it just me or is Walmart oil thinner than normal oil?

 

I am a member at www.bobistheoilguy.com and read that Quaker state makes there oil and Champion makes there filters.

In this true for both US & Canadian Wal Mart? So far, Wal Mart Filters are not available in Canada but the oil is .
