Summary
Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced he is canceling a $100M contract with Elon Musk’s Starlink and banning U.S. firms from provincial contracts in retaliation for Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada.
Ford warned that American companies could lose “tens of billions” in revenues.
Canada and Mexico have imposed counter-tariffs, while Ontario also plans to remove American liquor brands from stores.
Trump responded by suggesting Canada should become the U.S.’s 51st state to avoid tariffs, arguing Canada’s trade surplus makes it economically dependent on the U.S.
Fuck yeah Canada. More of this please.
Not trying to bring down the party, but Ford is an absolute monster. This is definitely a ‘broken clock’ situation, and sadly will probably lead to him winning yet again.
I’m not a fan of Ford, but a broken clock…
You know, personally i think Rob Ford (and his shit brother!) is a piece of shit and shady as fuck.
Today, i am proud as Hell, of our 100% dyed in the wool, CANADIAN piece of shit!
GO CANADA!
oh, …and fuck musk! <spits> Edit: I meant the reverse. Yes. Rob dead. Doug driving now. Brain fart.
In space, no one can hear you…
I’m shocked to see Canadian conservatives Actually side with their country over authoritarian billionaires. Like I’m downright flabbergasted. Never in 100 years did I think they’d actually circle the wagons. I mean I’m still not really convinced, but I have my eyebrows raised.
Same. I’m waiting to see what the play is because I have such a hard time believing he’s not fellating the rich.
A noble act and good luck to it but I doubt these few water weak men trying to take over the world will even notice.
lol
Smart move by Ontario, hopefully the other provinces will do the same.
