Billionaire investor Wilbur Ross, who has also been an economic advisor to the Donald Trump presidential campaign, says that it’s in Canada’s best interest to seek deals with as many large trading partners as possible.

“If I were Canada, I would be seeking good trade relations with as many large entities as I possibly could have because I think at the end of the day that would be in Canada’s best interest,” Ross told BNN in an interview on Friday, when asked about the potential Comprehensive and Economic Trade Agreement (CETA), a proposed free-trade agreement between Canada and the European Union.

Trade has also been a key issue in the U.S. presidential election. Anti-trade rhetoric has been prominent on the Trump campaign trail, with the candidate threatening to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) if he were to be elected on Nov.8.

But Ross said that Canada “doesn’t have a lot to fear” in the event that Trump were to win the presidency.  

“He talks a lot about trade and I think basically is on the right side of the issue,” Ross said. “You don’t hear him voice huge complaints about Canada and there’s a good reason for that. In the case of the trade between the U.S. and Canada, it is relatively much better-balanced than the trade between the U.S. and Mexico, for example.”

Ross noted that Canada has an “infinitely smaller” trade surplus with the U.S. than Mexico since NAFTA came into effect in 1994.
