Ontario Premier Doug Ford is set to terminate a $100 million contract with Elon Musk's Starlink after initially supporting it. This decision follows the activation of US tariffs, prompting Ford to consider retaliatory measures such as a surcharge on electricity exports to the US. Ford emphasized the need for a strong stance, threatening to cut off electricity supply to US customers if necessary. Prime Minister Trudeau has also announced Canadian retaliatory tariffs, marking an escalating trade dispute between Canada and the US.
We also need to be ready to dig in for a long fight. We need to be ready to escalate using every tool in our tool kit.
Today the US launched a trade war against Canada, their closest ally and their closest friend.
If the tariffs persist, we will be forced to issue our own 25 percent surcharge on electricity exported to the US.
I'm prepared to shut off electricity with a smile on my face to US customers if things aren't resolved.
