He really doesn't know when to shut up, does he?

This won't turn out the way he expects it to. Canadians already seemed pretty happy to stop buying American goods and contributing to tourism, and the rest of the world no longer trusts us. Trying to strangle their economy by stifling trade goes both ways, and it's going to hurt the country that nobody wants to trade with a lot more than the one with plenty of opportunities to form new trade deals.

I think it's more likely to hurt the country that cannot produce most of its own food, rather than the one that can.
