It just means that we buy more from Canada than Canada buys from us. It's like how you have a trade deficit with your grocery store because you buy more groceries from them than the grocery store buys from you.

It has nothing to do with any tariffs on US goods.

You did. This is what you said verbatim:

You are clearly saying that you think Canada already had tariffs on US goods equivalent to the 25% blanket tariff that Trump imposed. Would you like to walk that back a bit?

Have a nice life ...
