ALSO COULD IT BE THAT THE U.S DOESN'T NEED CANADIAN EXPORTS AND ARE BUYING ELSEWHERE..SO WHO DOESN'T NEED WHO ? YOU RAINSOAKED,BEERBASTED CANUKS SHOULD LIGHTEN UP ON THE INFERIORITY SUPERIORITY COMPLEX ANTIAMERICAN REHTORIC..AND I SUPPOSE I SHOULD LEARN TO SPELL.

the national post quotes statscan about canadian exports being less dependent on america.the bigger better point is that canadian exports are down to all our markets.exports are down less to asia than the percent reduction to the u.s,so the percent of our exports to asia is increasing compared to u.s.this is something to brag about? we are dependent on all our foreign customers.who pays/funds statscan anyway.our feelgood pablem feeding feds?
