...if the guy really did travel to the US, did illegal-in-US business
physically within US territory, then returned to Canada, then the US
has every right to request his extradition.  Just like if someone went
to Iran with a bunch of contraband-in-Iran sexual education materials,
sold them there in violation of Iran's laws, then returned to the US.
(Of course, the US is less cooperative with Iran than Canada is with
the US, but that's a separate issue.)

Of course, that's if he did do business physically within the US.  If
he did business remotely (say, online) and had someone else ship the
goods, his status is a bit murkier (although the shipper may be up on
smuggling charges).
