Summary
Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced he is canceling a $100M contract with Elon Musk’s Starlink and banning U.S. firms from provincial contracts in retaliation for Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada.
Ford warned that American companies could lose “tens of billions” in revenues.
Canada and Mexico have imposed counter-tariffs, while Ontario also plans to remove American liquor brands from stores.
Trump responded by suggesting Canada should become the U.S.’s 51st state to avoid tariffs, arguing Canada’s trade surplus makes it economically dependent on the U.S.
The better Ford died.
I’m not lying. Watch footage of him. He was a crackhead and an alcoholic but you could tell he cared about the people he cared about. DoFo is a mob shill.
Tbf I’m in MB and didn’t agree with either of them haha, I wasn’t close enough to really see what Rob did for the city so take my opinion with a grain of salt
