Summary
Ontario Premier Doug Ford warned that Canada could cut electricity exports to the U.S. in retaliation for Donald Trump’s new tariffs on Canadian goods.
The U.S. imposed a 25% tariff on most Canadian imports, citing border security concerns. Ford emphasized that U.S. states like New York and Michigan rely on Canadian energy and should “feel the pain.”
Canadian officials also announced $155 billion in counter-tariffs.
If enacted, energy restrictions would likely raise prices in the U.S., escalating trade tensions between the two countries.
You are clearly no longer an ally. You are a beligerant state with out working rule of law.
America is absolutely not a true ally so long as Trump is in charge. At best, America’s allies can only trust us for about 2 years under idealistic political circumstances, and I have very, very seldom seen idealistic political circumstances in my lifetime.
