Summary
Canadian leaders, particularly Ontario Premier Doug Ford, are considering retaliatory measures against Trump’s tariff threats, including restricting U.S. alcohol imports and cutting electricity exports to 1.5 million American homes.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has remained relatively calm despite Trump’s provocations, but Ontario’s response signals rising tensions.
Analysts warn that Trump’s tariff policies could provoke significant economic retaliation from Canada, disrupting key cross-border energy supplies and trade.
The situation highlights the potential fallout from escalating U.S.-Canada trade disputes under the incoming administration.
As a nation we decided to fuck around; it’s time we found out.
I’m really hoping the rest of the world follows Canada’s thinking here and just doesn’t put up with the US’s bullshit. 4 years of standing in the corner with a dunce hat is exactly what we need.
Im in NZ and we’re not putting up with your bullshit. Cheers mate.
