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.

    Why is the fairness meter of the article “unfair left leaning”, when it just reports on something someone said?

    I don’t see any opinion piece there, but pretty much just direct quoting

    How can this be even left or right leaning? Oo

      In the US, reporting on simple facts makes you “radical left” while obvious propaganda makes you “right leaning”.

        Yeah, wherever I talk with right wingers, who support fascists and extreme right radicals, it’s always the extreme radicale left in opposition.
        Because everything, that’s not on their extreme right site, seems to be radicale left…
