“In the days ahead, you’ll hear some people argue that Canada has no choice. We cannot afford to lose U.S. market access.

The data says otherwise. Merchandise exports to the United States fell by roughly $30 billion in 2025 — and were almost entirely offset by a $29 billion increase everywhere else. Global Affairs Canada’s own accounting puts non-U.S. markets at 32.8 per cent of Canadian exports, the highest share in four decades. Canada is negotiating from a considerably stronger position than its posture suggests.”
