Now try adjusting for population. Here are the figures from the story:
> In the first 10 months of 2024, the Canadian border service reported seizing 10.8lb (4.9kg) of fentanyl entering from the US, while US Border Patrol intercepted 32.1lb (14.6kg) of fentanyl coming from Canada.
So the US is exporting 242 doses per 1000 Canadians to Canada. Canada is exporting 84 does per 1000 Americans to the US.
The point is that it is almost entirely manufactured in Mexico using Chinese and Indian precursor chemicals. The amount crossing the US-Canada border is negligible by comparison.
