“Last year, Canada exported approximately 33.2 million megawatt hours of electricity to the US — the most of any country though it still accounted for less than 1% of total US energy consumption.”

LOL.. Go ahead and cut it.

And we already have enough good beer.

And by the way, the tariff just went yo 50%.

It will hurt the Canadian brewers more than USA.

Plywood and lunber are a bigger problem than electricity and beer.

You’ll have more Bud Light for yourself.
Cutting off energy would hurt Quebec and Ontario most. My concern is that my federal government my try and prevent Alberta from exporting its oil to the States.

Brazil will be happy to clear cut the Amazon rain forest in order to supply all our wood product needs.

Canadian forest products are subsidized.
It’s tough to compete with companies that get their raw materials free or cheap.
