The Canadian Premier on the frontline of the ‘trade war’ with Donald Trump has renewed his threat to roll out retaliatory measures against the US.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford has issued yet another warning to the US President Donald Trump, as he says his plans for retaliatory tariffs will harm American citizens.
Ford has been at the forefront of the trade battle between the US and Canada, which started when the POTUS signed a slew of ‘catastrophic’ tariffs on its neighbors, as well as Mexico, China and the European Union.
Trump cited reasons from drugs to immigration as justification for the pricey sanctions, which includes a 25 percent tariff on aluminum and steel.

The Canadian premier has since torn up a $100 million contract with Elon Musk and threatened to hike mineral exports and electricity that powers the homes and businesses of 1.5 million people in New York, Michigan and Minnesota
