Costco can be cool all they want once the federal government of the USA tells them to fuck over Canadians they will. It's a very dangerous game to rely heavily on American companies in Canada right now. No matter how ethical they might be. The trade war has already begun and the USA will use any lever available when the time comes to annex.

The issue isn't the federal government tells them to fuck over Canadians (or anyone else). It's that they don't tell them anything. They just make Canadian goods cost more in the US. They don't have a choice. Most businesses would rather the cost stay the same, but we have a dumb ass president who's fucking us all over for no good reason.
