I'm not an electrician so I don't know. But I'd be more worried about the screw camping holding 2 wires vs the current carrying capability of that metallic strip. Plus I'm not a fan of multi path for the current. Like wearing a belt and suspenders.
Just so you know, there are four different grades of maple syrup, from clear to thick ;-)

You may have missed it but Caelin in post #2 confirmed why it is best to wire with a jumper.
