(Table) from the Table, Assume That Canada Can Produce Both $\text {Canada's Production Possibilities}$

(Table) From the table, assume that Canada can produce both timber and oil at an absolute advantage compared to Mexico, yet Canada is willing to trade its timber for Mexican oil. Why might Canada be willing to focus on timber and allow Mexico to produce oil? $\text {Canada's Production Possibilities}$
$\begin{array}{cc} \text { Tons of Timber}& \text {Barrels of }\\& \text {Oil}\\15 & 0 \\ 10 & 4 \\ 5 & 8 \\ 0 & 12\end{array}$



$\text {Mexico's Production Possibilities}$
$\begin{array}{cc} \text {Tons of Timber}&\text { Barrels of}\\&\text { Oil}\\6 & 0 \\ 4 & 2 \\ 2 & 4 \\ 0 & 6\end{array}$

A) Mexico has better trade routes north to Canada.
B) Canada sees this tradeoff as a form of charity.
