Original Note:
America DOES NOT lose or subsidize Canada $200B: 1) 2024 US-Canada trade deficit was $63B, far lower than deficits with China, EU, Mexico & Vietnam. https://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/balance/c1220.html 2) NATO allies VOLUNTARILY commit funds; 2% GDP is a GOAL, not a mandate. https://www.nato.int/cps/uk/natohq/topics_67655.htm?selectedLocale=en 3) Canada holds $225B in US Treasury debt. https://usafacts.org/articles/which-countries-own-the-most-us-debt/
