It all depends on incoming U.S. president Donald Trump’s threat to put 25% tariffs on goods imported from Canada and the impact on Ontarians.

Ontario’s premier is proving to be the best leader we have in the looming confrontation with Donald Trump’s Washington

Speaking at the Rural Ontario Municipal Association’s annual conference Monday morning, Ford said he will send a directive to the LCBO to “clear off every bit” of U.S. alcohol from the shelves if tariffs are enacted.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says he may have to “let the people decide” if his government should spend billions to offset the impact of potential incoming American tariffs. The comments mark the premier’s strongest indication yet that he may be planning to call an election before the fixed date in 2026.
