    Has "the world" chosen and sided "with Iran over America", miniseries maven?

    As far as trade, apparently you have not bothered to look it up, or maybe you did and that is why you are avoiding it.
    America is a vital trading partner, but in recent years not a reliable one and the future of trade is not with America anyways. I'm thinking long-term. America is not the world's future, and that's probably close to a fact.

    Canada was the United States' 1st largest goods export market in 2016.

    U.S. goods exports to Canada in 2016 were $266.0 billion, down 5.2% ($14.6 billion) from 2015 but up 15.3% from 2006.

    The top export categories (2-digit HS) in 2016 were: vehicles ($48 billion), machinery ($ 40 billion), electrical machinery ($24 billion), mineral fuels ($16 billion), and plastics ($12 billion).

    U.S. exports of agricultural products to Canada totaled $23 billion in 2016, our largest agricultural export market. Leading categories include: prepared food ($1.9 billion), fresh vegetables ($1.8 billion), fresh fruit ($1.6 billion), snack foods ($1.3 billion), and non-alcoholic beverages (ex. juices) ($1.2 billion).

    U.S. exports of services to Canada were an estimated $54.2 billion in 2016, 4.0% ($2.3 billion) less than 2015, but 43.1% greater than 2006 levels. It was up roughly 218% from 1993 (pre-NAFTA). Leading services exports from the U.S. to Canada, in 2015, were in the travel, intellectual property (software and audio-visual), and transportation sectors.

    "'Hey, are you from Canada? We LOVE Canadians. Here's a ten dollar chip for the slots.'", while they give everyone else a $100 chip (that whole redheaded stepchild thing).. anyway, the future of trade may not be with the United States, the future protection of Canada may not be relying on the United States, however in the here and now, and certainly for the foreseeable future it is.

    They give you chips for the slot; because they know that you're to poor to have your own.
    SEDITION: incitement of resistance to or insurrection against lawful authority.

    Any "chip" the comic book Canadian was given was issued by a buffalo.
