Ford rejects idea of putting U.S. booze back on shelves unless White House concedes trade war | CBC News
"Ontario Premier Doug Ford stated, 'We are not going to put U.S. alcohol back on our shelves unless the White House concedes in this trade war.' His remarks came in response to U.S. officials suggesting that Canada relies heavily on the U.S. economy."
"Prime Minister Mark Carney emphasized, 'Canada will not make any more concessions to the United States ahead of negotiations,' addressing claims that the U.S. is imposing an 'entry fee' on trade talks."
Ontario Premier Doug Ford firmly opposes the idea of allowing U.S. alcohol back on store shelves without prior concessions from the White House in the ongoing trade war. His comments followed a U.S. Senate hearing where Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick suggested that Canada depends on the U.S. economy. Prime Minister Mark Carney also stated that Canada will not make further concessions to the U.S. before trade negotiations commence, responding to claims of an 'entry fee' imposed by the Americans.
