Read what I said. I said EXPORT tariffs. These are taxed at the border, by Canada, to the buyer exporting - IE; the farmers and supply chain in the US. These aren’t like Trump’s import tariffs but they have the same effect to Americans.
The only effect this would have on Canada is MAYBE some reduced sales, but US farmers don’t have a choice with this product. They literally can’t buy it from anywhere else in the numbers they need.
And yes, the design would be to cause even further damage to US farming because of Trump. It’s a huge power play Canada has. They want to reduce our added tax on potash? They need to drop or reduce tariffs on their end.
US buyers are technically importing potash to the USA, but the tariff is considered an export tariff because it’s leaving Canada. The tariff is on the buyer in the US.

Buyers import. Sellers export. Your example does not make logical sense.

as he said “EXPORT tariffs. These are taxed at the border, by Canada, to the buyer exporting”, which would be those farmers
Wait, why not?
