just found this online
US comics printed in Canada but sent back to the US for distribution are considered Canadian products for tariff purposes. This is because the tariffs are applied based on the country of origin of the goods, not where the company is headquartered. Here's what Redditors have to say about this issue:
Key Points
Origin Matters: The tariffs are applied based on the country where the product is made. Since many US comics are printed in Canada, they would be subject to the 35% tariff if they are considered Canadian exports.
Impact on Comic Prices: The increased costs due to tariffs can significantly affect the price of comics in the US.
so I guess they are considered Canadian afterall
