Canada Threatens US Power Cut: A Nation’s Pain, a World’s Warning
In response to President Trump’s 25% tariff on Canadian goods, Ontario Premier Doug Ford threatened to halt energy exports to the U.S., stating he would do so “with a smile.” This action is a significant retaliatory measure, given Canada’s substantial energy exports to the U.S. and the potential for increased energy prices in the U.S. Ford emphasized Canada’s crucial role in supplying energy to several American states. Trump’s tariffs, initially delayed, were implemented despite relatively low levels of fentanyl seizures at the Canadian border.
