So to solve this, Canada should just stop selling oil and gas to the US? That will make Trump happy right?

Trump rags on countries (and people) 𝑏𝑒𝑐𝑎𝑢𝑠𝑒 ℎ𝑒 𝑐𝑎𝑛. Canadian officials probably refused to bribe him personally. Russia and the Saudis wouldn't blink at a request for a payoff.

Canada is a great friend of the United States, that is why Putin ordered his puppet Trump to destroy that friendship. Putin invaded Ukraine and Trump talking about making Canada the 51st state justifies Putin's invasion of Ukraine.

The toilet paper issue has arisen again.

Wow did not expect this. And a significant surplus too.

Until very recently, if you went to almost any store in Canada, you'd see tons of made-in-US products, and people were perfectly happy to buy them.

Produce, wine, electronics, building materials, tools are some of the obvious ones.

I am concerned that Trump's actions against our trade partners in Canada and Europe will cause them to turn to China for their trade. IS THE STATUS OF THE DOLLAR, AS THE WORLD'S RESERVE CURRENCY, IN DANGER???
