Canada, with a population less than one-ninth the size of that of the United States, bought an average of $5,254 worth of U.S. goods per capita. The United States bought $219 billion worth of Canadian merchandise, approximately $768 for every American.

Canada bought more U.S. goods than all 15 countries of the European Union combined and more than all of Latin America and the Caribbean.

In 2001, U.S. exports to the province of Ontario alone were worth almost twice as much as those to Japan."

Nice try.

the US buys a few billion more than it sells to canada. As a % what the US sells is nothing compaired to the % of canadian GDP that it sells to the US.

Nice try at throwing us off with true but irrelevant facts.
