Doug Ford, during a campaign stop in Ottawa, announced that a re-elected Progressive Conservative government would impose a tariff on electricity sent to the U.S. as a countermeasure to possible tariffs from President Trump. While details of this proposed tariff were scarce, it ties into Ford's prior commitment to halt energy exports should Trump's tariffs be enacted. Ford is emphasizing economic stability amidst these looming trade issues, while other party leaders criticize the snap election as unnecessary, given the ongoing majority held by the Progressive Conservatives. The party's platform included significant financial commitments without exhaustive cost details.
