Ford Threatens US Power Cut: Trade War Looms
In response to potential U.S. tariffs, Ontario Premier Doug Ford threatened to cut off electricity exports to the United States. This action would impact key U.S. states heavily reliant on Ontario’s power supply, including New York, Michigan, and Minnesota. Ford asserted that this retaliatory measure is a necessary response to any aggressive trade actions from the U.S. He stated that he would cut off energy exports “with a smile on my face” if necessary. The move highlights the significant energy interdependence between Canada and the U.S.
