Alberta’s government supports a proportionate and measured response to U.S. tariffs. However, our government will not allow Ottawa to cut off or impose export tariffs on Alberta energy – doing so would hurt Albertans and Canadians far more than Americans. pic.twitter.com/JVDeLGAQ9D

In the same breath as Ford blasts Trump for his tariffs on Canadian electricity, he proposes, in response, to effectively double them.
Ontario will charge 25 per cent more for electricity shipped to 1.5 million Americans starting Monday in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs, Premier Doug Ford said Thursday.
The policy raises some questions. Since hydro contracts are long term with already agreed upon pricing, how does Ford propose to make the American utilities pay the extra charges? He can send as many invoices as he wants to US customers, but there’s no way a US court would rule in favor of Ontario and they would be free to ignore them.
The other problem is that by shrinking the differential between American and Canadian electricity prices by 50%, you have incentivized American utilities to build their own generating capacity. Has Ford not considered that angle? Oh wait, don’t answer that….

Where the foxes caper unmolested, the government packs your school lunch and under new guidance prison sentences will be less likely for ‘ethnic minorities’ and ‘faith minority communities’.

Timing is everything, and this Tariff War is precisely what the Federal Government needed to distract Canadians from their abysmal economic record. From Capital Flight, Falling Investment, and my personal favourite, a collapse in Productivity Growth. The data speaks for itself.
