Despite the close economic ties between the U.S. and Canada, there remain significant issues relating to maritime borders, trade tariffs, and energy policy, which can strain relations.
Historically, the relationships have been marred by instances of conflict, such as the American invasions during the Revolution and the War of 1812, which fostered resentment.
Key historical events, including British aid during the American Civil War, have also sown discord. The reparations demanded were a reflection of underlying tensions still felt today.
Although Canada rejected participation in the American Revolution, the influx of Loyalists reinforced an enduring complexity in Canadian attitudes toward American influence.
