Canada

In 2006, two-way trade in goods and services between the United States and Canada exceeded US$500 billion, which was larger than total US trade with the entire 15-country European Union. In fact, the US-Canada trade relationship is the largest economic relationship that has ever existed between two nations

Canada has an affluent economy that is closely integrated with that of the United States, resembling not only US per capita output, but also its market-oriented economic system and pattern of production. The Canadian economy continues to grow moderately and is expected to expand during 2007. Private consumption is forecast to remain strong in 2007, due primarily to real growth in wages. Canada’s economy will continue to generate demand for US goods and services of all kinds.  Growth in the information and communications technology, biotechnology and other high-tech sectors, and oil and gas sector will provide particularly good opportunities for US exporters.

In 2006, Arizona exported over $1.8 billion worth of products to Canada making it Arizona’s second largest export market.
