Meta and Google both have Canadian offices full of Canadian employees, so it's not like they have a purely virtual presence in Canada.

A Canadian citizen buying from a foreign company is not the same as the company conducting business in Canada.

The citizen takes on the responsibility of making sure the legal process of doing business in Canada is upheld. EG, they cannot buy something that is illegal to own in Canada, and the relevant taxes and tariffs must be paid, all of those things.

Should Canada be placing tariffs on Facebook? That would be interesting to see.

Meta employs thousands of people in Canada, so they absolutely have a legal nexus in Canada, and that legal nexus could be targeted.
