    Drain the Atlantic ocean?

    Load Canada onto a barge and move right next to the EU?

    Geography is always going to be the number one factor in this.

    Develop shipping infrastructure east of Montreal as well as expanding the railway (both cargo and passenger).

    We really only have Halifax as an east coast shipping hub. There is only so much capacity available here as well. We need another port with rail access.

      We did it before. The UK was our largest partner in the past. Trading with the USA is a choice not a necessity.
