Cutting off one's nose to spite one's face

There's that fraction of American businesses that just barely tolerate making their online stores work with selling and shipping to Canadian addresses. How many of them just cut off Canada entirely rather than figuring out the wrinkles of cutting off Quebec?
 
"a consumer can sue in Quebec even if the company doesn't have an establishment in the province but noted that any judgment handed down by a Quebec court would have to be recognized in the defendant's jurisdiction to be enforced."
 
That's going to screw Eastern Ontario further as well. Much of our stuff is shipped into Montreal, as it's closer than Toronto.
 
Well, that's a quick way to make big business run away screaming from your province.

Considering the likes of Tesla are apparently looking at Ontario and Quebec for a new manufacturing plant right now, I'm guessing were a shoe in if they get word of this nonsense.
 
How to become sovereign via economic stupidity.
 
Wonder if someone will set up something like cross-border pickups to bring things from Canada to Quebec

They'd better speak french. Seems like something that one of the existing couriers could easily do. Hell, most already have storefront addresses people use, almost no changes required to add this service.
