This could work to canadians benifit now, since canada has no such list, should they want to sell to us as the farmers are still going to want to sell thier corals.
Could end up being cheeper, more selection and better quality corals for us.
One could only hope anyways.

Don't bet on it. Corals going into Canada are on route from one of major US airports. After the ban taking effect, you will see less corals going our way because the shipments can't stop in US any more.

I think it will not stop at coral and fish but live rock as well will be banned.

Talked with a lawyer friend who takes care of many import/export issues for big companies and he says that for most banned substances ( other than drugs), as long as they are legally collected in the country of origin and they are not offloaded in the USA then they can be shipped to Canada with very few issues.
