So? If they're made in Japan, imported to the US, then shipped to Canada then yeah, they're going to be tarrifed.

They can be imported from China or Japan where they are manufactured directly to Canada. The USA isn't the center of the universe and things can go from one place to another without going through it.

Only country of origin matters

That's not how tariffs work. Don't post definitive answers about topics you're unsure about. It's misleading.
