Summary
Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced he is canceling a $100M contract with Elon Musk’s Starlink and banning U.S. firms from provincial contracts in retaliation for Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada.
Ford warned that American companies could lose “tens of billions” in revenues.
Canada and Mexico have imposed counter-tariffs, while Ontario also plans to remove American liquor brands from stores.
Trump responded by suggesting Canada should become the U.S.’s 51st state to avoid tariffs, arguing Canada’s trade surplus makes it economically dependent on the U.S.

I didn’t say blue voters. I said people in blue states. That means blue voters, red voters, independent voters, and non voters. I meant everyone in those blue states should feel the effects and speak up and out.
And those voters would still vote for Trump. They will claim their hardships weren’t due to Canada’s tariffs but due to California having too high of taxes and not giving them enough water.
