The thing is that with a fossil fuel friendly administration coming in there's a path for the U.S. to expand crude oil production and potentially change their refineries to upgrade shale crude as opposed to what they get from Canada.
The U.S. is better positioned to win this trade war and frankly they've been moving this way for 20 years. So I think Canada needs to try and figure this out diplomatically rather than retaliatory. They can withstand our 50 nerf darts a lot easier than us taking thousands of ballistic missiles.
