Here's a couple of reasons....


quote:


Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974: Permits action against foreign practices that burden U.S. commerce or violate agreements.
Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930: Authorizes the President to impose duties of up to 50% (or other measures) to offset a foreign country’s discrimination or unequal treatment of U.S. commerce. This was used for the first time in recent actions against Canada.

Years ago, the Canadians had an opportunity to build a new pipeline named Energy East that would have supplied Eastern Canada and the Maritimes with Albertan oil without entering the US.

The Liberals killed the project.

Shutting off Canadian energy to America means shutting off energy to Ontario and Quebec too.

So congratulations on destroying your own country and ruining whatever leverage you had. I'm sure it made you all feel morally superior at the time though, so maybe it was worth it

Because 70 plus percent of Canada's trade is with the US.
While the US actually LOSES money trading with Canada.

In plain language:
Canada is fricked without US trade!
