We'd piss you off because we want to restore our nation's security?

No, you'd piss us off by refusing to trade with us when we have a very strong trade relationship.
It's exactly the same as refusing to trade with black people; you're arbitrarily reducing the number of customers, which lowers demand for your goods.

As Canadians we are push-overs... we're like the eager 16 year old that wants to buy their first vehicle. We don't think before we act, we just take the first offer. I am saying what if Canada were to smarten up and reap in some rewards for having the shittier half of the continent. How are the beaches down there? Ours are f'n frozen.

How about the "suppliers provide goods and services that they voluntarily trade to the benefit of the buyer and the seller"?
