Ontario Premier Doug Ford cautioned that US electricity exports might be shut off. Ford traded sharp words with Trump during a US-Canada trade dispute over tariffs. Trump warned he would boost tariffs on Canadian cars to 50 percent. Carney stated that Trump wants to destroy Canada's auto industry via these recent tariff threats.
Trump told Canadian leaders to accommodate his stance and expressed frustration after US-Canada talks devolved into a trade war. Canada will announce retaliatory tariffs following the threat. Ford repeated his warning that Ontario might sever power supplies to the United States.
