Canada experienced a trade surplus every year between 1970 and 2008. With the exception of the years 2011 and 2014, the trade balance has been in deficit since 2009. The highest trade deficits were reported with China, Germany, and Mexico in 2018, while the largest trade surpluses were recorded with the United States, the United Kingdom, and Norway in the same year.

A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the CAD while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the CAD.
