Canadian Premier Fires Back At Trump Tariffs By Cancelling $100 Million Contract With Elon Musk

There have been a lot of international tensions in recent months since Donald Trump took office. Some of the tensions are right in his own backyard, as Canada has some serious issues with the upcoming tariffs being put in place by the US.

One particular Canadian Premier, Doug Ford, has been outspoken on the subject. He recently threatened to shut off electricity to some 1.5 million Americans and now he has canceled a $100 million contract with Elon Musk.

All of this is in retaliation for the tariffs that Trump is putting in place. According to Doug Ford, the Premier of Ontario, Canada, they have already shredded the contract with Starlink, Musk’s satellite Internet company. He is also set to stop all businesses based in the United States from taking any provincial procurement. He then went on to say that Trump has chosen chaos over prosperity.

At first, things were on pause for 30 days but now Trump has signed off on the plan to put 25% tariffs on Canadian exports and 10% tariffs on Canadian energy this week. Not long after returning to the White House, he put those restrictions on Canada and Mexico and a 10% tariff on China.

According to Trump, the upcoming tariffs are to hold those countries ‘accountable for their promises to halt the flood of poisonous drugs into the US.’
