To me, trade means trade. Right now its lopsided to the tune of about 31 billion dollars in 2014. So realistically maybe putting a tariff on goods would also have the added side benefit of opening up China's market to Canada.

and what are they going to say, if you don't remove these unfair environmental tariffs, we'll send you less stuff to sell?
