The Washington Independent: Here Come the Trade Wars

    you left out the u.s. biggest trading partner - canada. the u.s. currently has access to the largest oil reserves on the planet even though it is in canada's north and is difficult to extract. americans too often overlook canada in any economic sense. not only is canada america's largest trading partner, it is also a nato ally, and enjoys the eighth largest economy in the world.
    i guess most americans think of canada as a big empty country with polite people who serve as hunting/fishing guides. it's not. google some facts on canada, because i'm always shocked when so many people aren't aware of the power of the canadian economy.
