“We can dismantle the US”: Doug Ford, other Canadian premiers react to Trump 50% tariff threat

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChLtXXpo4Ge1ReTEboVvTDg https://ift.tt/0KkI5Tc Canadian premiers meeting in Charlottetown, P.E.I reacted on Tuesday to news that U.S. President Donald Trump was threatening to impose 50 per cent tariffs on most Canadian goods. The U.S. said Monday it will be imposing an additional 50 per cent tariff on Canadian imports due to retaliatory and “discriminatory” measures Canada took in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs. Speaking to reporters, Ontario Premier Doug Ford said that in his view, “We need a plan from the prime minister… If these (CUSMA) talks fail in 29 days we need to hit them back as hard as we can. I’m tired of the bully trying to take our lunch money, we need to stand up to the bully and hit them tariff-for-tariff… We have to go full tilt.” Ford continued, saying “We are an energy powerhouse and we can dismantle the U.S. if we wanted to.” B.C. Premier David Eby said “the idea of the president that he can bully us into whatever he wishes is incorrect.” “There is not a chance in hell that U.S. alcohol is going back on the shelf in British Columbia,” Eby added.
