🔴LIVE: Ontario announces tariff response with 25% surcharge on US-bound electricity I AFP

Ontario Premier Doug Ford speaks as Ontario prepares to move ahead with a 25 percent surcharge on U.S.-bound electricity in response to President Donald Trump's tariffs. Trump has repeatedly spoken about annexing Canada and thrown bilateral trade, the lifeblood of the Canadian economy, into chaos with dizzying tariff actions that have veered in various directions since he took office.

As an American I support this despite how badly it’s going to hurt my pockets. I’m not rich, currently on disability, but I support our Canadian cousins.

Trump can't argue with it. He say tariffs are great. Well here you go Donald, enjoy.

I used to spend hours caught up in news cycles, feeling frustrated about things I couldn’t control. Mind Decoding made me realize how my subconscious was shaping my perspective and the energy I put out. Once I stopped feeding into the negativity and started focusing on personal transformation, everything changed. My mind, my aura, my life- it all shifted.. I’m just so grateful I found this book

[AmperSand]

Very impressed by the overall quality of the press conference, especially of answers provided by the premier and the minister.

[martinedwards]

Americans are happy you're doing this and standing up for your country. If you have to, SHUT IT DOWN!!! One American that is mending my shopping habits to benefit others. I know there are others. Do what you have to do. Americans are behind you!!
