Summary
Ontario Premier Doug Ford says the province will permanently cancel its $100 million contract with Elon Musk’s Starlink, even if U.S. tariffs are lifted.
The decision follows Trump’s 25% tariffs on Canadian imports, which prompted Ontario to ban U.S. firms from contracts.
Ford cited Musk’s ties to Trump as a factor and said he is willing to fight potential legal fallout.
Musk previously responded to cancellation threats with a dismissive “Oh well.”
Doug Ford is the world’s biggest douche.
But this is how you get Musk to behave.
Oooh Trump’s gonna get in a fight with Canadian Trump! Get some popcorn y’all!
Yeah, i was gonna say pp is canada trump, but on further reflection pp is more akin to mike Johnson. I guess marlaina Smith is a combo of mtg and bobo. Side note i forgot bobos name and looked it up.
Lmao! I hate to admit this, but I bet “hot” would have worked as well.
I hate to admit this, but I bet “that congressperson who gave her affair partner a sloppy handy at a children’s show” would also have worked.
For reference, she and a man (not her husband, but a man she was there with) were kicked out of a local production of the stage musical “Beetlejuice”. She initially claimed it was because she was singing along with the musical, but footage later surfaced that showed she was giving him a handy in the middle of the audience.
Know all of the panic about children at drag shows? Yeah, every single accusation from conservatives is a confession.
I mean she is not unattractive, until she speaks.
If you’re into that kind of fake tit, dead in the eyes kinda thing…which I’m not.
Boebert is the shadow land version of AOC. My apologies to Naomi Klein.
Yeah “Oh well.” But then he cries like a baby who didn’t get a piggy back ride, and starts to sue people who won’t do business with his companies.
Just like all these people he’s paying off and then two days later realizes he made a mistake and wants to hire them back. Just like all these tariffs they are so fast to impose and then AFTER THINKING ABOUT SHIT want to start rolling it all back. These people are legit dumb as fuck.
It’s frustrating that $100 million is only about 0.028760% of Elon Musk’s total wealth ($347.7 billion). Let’s hope more people abandon his failing companies and that other governments and big clients follow Fords lead.
I canceled my starlink after his nazi salutes, I hope a bunch more follow suit, then it could be a lot more lost reoccurring revenue for old Moscow musk
This is absolutely the right decision.
Good. Should cut ties with that asshole. He is constantly pitching ideas that are not that great on their own and can only be accomplished with subsidies.
And all this tariff threat should have repercussions. Can’t keep going back and forth, back and forth without saying enough.
I say this as an American who is disgusted with how this administration is treating our closest friends and allies.
EU citizen here, I see that Premier Doug Ford is doing good stuff, it is a good political figure in general?
Hope Ford has some good lawyers on retainer… this is probably gonna get ugly, lol
