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.

    I don’t think we should be doing this in the middle of winter. Plus it’s going to affect blue states

    US citizen here, in a blue state. Do it, you’re doing us a favor. Let’s get those guys up there to get out the pitchforks, let’s see people freezing on the news.

    The current blue is purple, let’s make it blue again.

    Libs need to be in the streets. The Maga viewpoint will fall as the stock market shutters and their kids are in danger of getting drafted to fight a war on two sides.
