Planning On Moving from .com to .ca amidsts tariffs. I have some questions! | Selling

As most of you likely already know the incompetent buffoon- a known bankrupt felon, conman, traitor and vile pile of garbage is planning on putting a blanket 25% tariff on Canada next week. (whether or not this actually goes into effect or not is anyones guess). Either way, I am strategizing on ways to gain more Canadian and International buyers going forward and increasing my domestic pride. As it stands my sales are like 65% American, 20% Canadian, 15% international. I would like to boost Canadian to 30% and international to 25% and am seeking ways to do this. One of the things on my mind to aid in this would be to start selling in CAD and switch to the .CA website basically rounding my prices down by a hair in favor of a Canadian dollar price point. EXAMPLE: an avg product I sell is $25 USD and I would start selling it at $35 CAD instead. (rounding down from the converted $36.11 CAD to prefer the Canadian buyer) Has anyone else on here done this and did it negatively impact your sales? One of my worries is when I offer sale events or bulk discounts on listings that American buyers will no longer be able to access them since they might find my product while surfing .com instead of .ca. Currently I have noticed this issue with Canadian and International customers who arent able to get the bulk discounts or sales sometimes and I have no idea why. I can only suspect it is because they use .ca or a foreign ebay variant while im using .com currently. Why doesnt ebay allow your sales/ discounts to traverse global reach no matter what ebay browser they are using? am I missing something here? Please assist me in this. I really want to make the transition. I will make the jump to .ca in a heartbeat if I can clear up this issue.
