Bottom line is subtract Heavy Oil from the equation and Canada runs a trade deficit with the US. Heavy Oil is shipped through existing pipelines to US refineries who make a strong profit. So simple really if you really want balanced trade with Canada simply don't import half the Oil. Let's throw out the pretense that the US is helping Canada. There is NO trade with Canada that doesn't benefit Americans. In fact, in many cases, Canada is helping the US too much with sweetheart deals on supplying power and that same Oil at discount prices. Go ahead pay MORE for the same goods elsewhere and add on the shipping costs and logistics costs. I'm so tired of the false narratives on this site. Canadians have had it with American bs and there is now a massive boycott of American products growing every day. Or you can stay ignorant, believe a pathological liar, and pay for it. Maybe that's the lesson here, just let the US experience the supply chain problems, the high inflation, and higher unemployment. Trump can blame everyone but himself when he engineered it all.
Canada's dairy system is about quality control afaik. Why are you so keen on jumping on the Trump's false narrative train ? Markets are having their say on what they think is coming. This could be the "greatest" human engineered recession since the Great Depression. Anyone buying a new NA car now is screwed. Anyone who uses Cdn lumber/steel/aluminum in the construction industry is cancelling projects. Anyone using Cdn potash like US farmers just took a hit. You know who isn't screwed ? Rich Americans because they'll get a tax break. You know, because that's what a nation with debt issues has to do, put themselves into a recession ( cutting tax revenues ) and cut tax collection on those who do make a lot of money. The fallout will come.
TDS is a bullshit theory that fails to recognize that Trump is an immoral man with mental heath issues ( call him an extreme sociopath or psychopath he's in there somewhere ). He's a proven pathological liar. And now he's added vengeance in his old age as a primary motivator. Why on earth is Canada a target over say China or Russia ? Well, we all know why but some of you have the blinders on and drank the Koolaid. Maybe address REALITY and not all this bs. Or maybe the rest of us just have to say fk it you can deal with the fallout.
“Why would our Country allow another Country to supply us with electricity, even for a small area?” “Who made these decisions, and why?” the president demanded. What devious despot could have negotiated such a deal?? Hmm..I wonder.. His name used to be Drumpf. Unfortunately the rednecks have a very short attention span and this will all be forgotten about in a couple of days. His past is well documented..they just choose to ignore it. 1939 again.
I'm so sorry that all the fentanyl the Canada is pushing over the border as fast as it can has ended up in your medicine cupboard. You gotta take it easy with that stuff man. There was a man from Germany back in the day who was partial to the odd opioid. Some would say it made him rather crazy too.
I'm not defending Trump, I'm just anti BS and stating that Canada has no tarrifs is BS! Canada's dairy and poultry system isn't about quality control it's about suppy management. Canada manages supply so farmers can make a decent living, the US subsidizes farmers so they can stay in business. In Canada the end user pays, in the US everybody(the taxpayer) pays.
