Ontario Premier Doug Ford cautioned that US energy flows might be shut off. Ford traded sharp words with Trump during a US-Canada tariff conflict over tariffs. Trump warned he would boost tariffs on Canadian cars to 50 percent. Carney argued that Trump is trying to cripple Canada's auto industry via these recent tariff threats.
Trump told Canadian leaders to comply with demands and lashed out after US-Canada talks devolved into a trade war. Canada is set to impose retaliatory tariffs in response to the warning. Ford repeated his warning that Ontario might sever power supplies to the United States.
