Watch those shifty Brits. They might try to smuggle in aluminium to displace our good aluminum.

For years, Canada and Mexico did a profitable carry trade in aluminum by importing it cheaply from China and then exporting the same ingots or local production to the US, thus cannibalizing US aluminum production. That is what Trump ended, thereby saving US aluminum producers and their ability to innovate with new alloys and applications.
