Reduce Trade Deficits Dramatically, Creating More Wealth in Canada

Blaine Mitton • May 13, 2020

Imports & Exports

Trade with the U.S.

Canada Imported $319 Billion in U.S. Dollars in 2019

Canada Exported $292 Billion in U.S Dollars in 2019

This Resulted in a Trade Deficit of $27 Billion U.S. Dollars in 2019

Trade with China



Canada Exported $17.5 Billion in U.S dollars in 2019



Canada Imported $49.8 Billion in U.S Dollars in 2019



This Resulted in a Trade Deficit of $32.3 Billion Dollars in 2019

These Trade Deficits Amount to $59.3 Billion, U.S. No small sum. 

These Trade Deficits could be Reduced Dramatically, if we stopped Importing so much Crude Oil from Foreign Countries to our East Coast Refineries from both the U.S, Saudi Arabia and other countries.



At the same time Canada could export more Crude Oil from the West Coast, along with LNG Liquified Natural Gas to China.

All we need to do is Build Pipelines which creates Jobs and Wealth in Canada, while at the same time creating the opportunity to not only Reduce our Trade Deficit, but the Ability to Grow our Exports and Create a Positive Balance of Trade for the future.



This leaves more Money in Canada, and creates more Wealth in Canada, while Benefiting the world market by supplying Clean Burning LNG!!!!

To this End they try to do the Right Thing. But What is the Right Thing? And what if Global Warming is Delusional? Consider also that Canada Contributes only about 1.5% of Global Emissions.

Trudeau is destroying Canada as we know it, through a Globalist and Socialist Agenda with the Government Funded Projects resulting in Higher Taxes, and Higher Trade Deficits, as we Block our Oil Exports, with Bills C-48 and Bill 69 hurting our Balance of Payments and resulting in Country Discontent.
