Stupid question, but why does Canada have internal trade barriers, or is it just like regulation about what can be transported across provincial lines?
That's a big part of it - this is a decent explainer.
It's mostly each province having different regulations, standards, definitions, or licensing bodies around things that are provincially governed.
Most of it is businesses not being willing to jump through thr hoops in all provinces, or those hoops making the end product overly expensive if sold in a national format.
Don't they have a "California effect" on Canada? Where everyone just comply with the highest standard just to be able to sell everywhere
