Trump sweep spurs fresh fight for Trudeau as trade talks loom

The country, which buys more U.S. goods than any other and is its largest outside supplier of oil, is now bracing for economic disruption after voters return Donald Trump to the White House.

Canada’s economy depends on its ability to sell energy, cars, minerals and other goods to the United States. Its consumers and businesses also rely heavily on U.S.-made imports — from Kia vehicles assembled in Georgia to tractors made in Iowa. The two countries have one of the world’s largest bilateral trade relationships, with a daily volume of goods and services worth about $2.6 billion, roughly equal to the size of U.S.-Mexico trade flows.
