Ontario Premier Doug Ford is announcing that the province will rip up its $100 million contract with Elon Musk’s Starlink ahead of U.S. President Donald Trump’s incoming 25 per cent tariffs.

Ford’s office made the announcement Monday and said the government is also banning other American companies from provincial contracts going forward

    Have officials pushed for that yet? That would be perfect. It’s an action that shows the whole world (or Canada in this case) understands the situation very clearly.

      I saw an article yesterday, maybe Freeland is her name. Recently of the gov’t, and running for office, I think. Ah, here 'tis…

      " Canadian MP Chrystia Freeland: “If Donald Trump slaps 25% tariffs on Canadian goods, we must hit back—dollar for dollar—starting with 100% tariffs on all Tesla vehicles and U.S. wine, beer, and spirits. We must protect Canadian workers and businesses.” "
