The head of the densely populated Canadian province of Ontario Dag Ford threatened the US to stop the supply of energy if Washington introduces a 25 percent fee for goods from Canada.
According to Canadian media, the heads of Canadian regions, led by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudo gathered together to prepare a plan of action against the threat of introducing a 25 percent customs duty on products exported from Canada to the USA.
speaking at the end of the meeting, Ford emphasized that Canada would go to everything, depending on how far it will go.
“We will reach Michigan, New York and Wisconsin to turn off their electricity. I do not want this to happen, but my main task is to protect Ontario, Ontario residents and Canadians in general, because we are the largest province “, – he said.
In turn, the Canadian Vice Prime Minister Freeland promised the “decisive answer of Canada to the unfair tariffs of the United States” and said that Canada would take retaliatory measures regarding metals and the most important minerals.
The previously elected American President Donald Trump threatened to introduce 25 percent duties on all goods from Canada and Mexico, if they did not stop the flow of drugs and migrants across the borders of the United States.
