You'd hope Canada and Mexico start increasing trade. I wonder if freight trucks are allowed to pass through the USA without incurring tariffs? Probably not as it's customs collecting it?

There’s shipping on both coasts though, as well as direct flights. Those should be able to avoid US interference.

ChatGPT answer

Goods from Mexico that are destined for Canada are generally not subject to U.S. tariffs if they are merely transiting through the United States.

But that’s assuming respecting the law which isn’t a US strong point right now.
