Edit: I also don't think they care where the goods come from. They just will not order them from another country usually which was where this small part of discussion originated I believe before I seemed to lead it way off topic. Mea culpa

The part of the Canadian border that I know is the border with North Dakota and Minnesota. They do a lot of business with people coming from Winnipeg. You see a lot of Canadian flags at stores along with the American flag.
