The leader of the largest economy in Canada is the conclusion of a deal with 'First Buddy' Elon Musk while the country continues to try to fight back at the rates of Donald Trump.
Doug Ford is the Prime Minister of Ontario, the home of both the capital of Canada of Ottawa and the largest city in Toronto.
He has been one of the most frightening hunters against Trump's rate war with Canada, who officially came into force after midnight on Tuesday.
Ford – who also threatened to cut energy to the United States – launched an attack on Musk, which canceled the $ 100 million from the company ($ 68 million US) contract with Starlink Satellite Internet provider.
“It's done, it's gone. We will not grant contracts to people who make and encourage economic attacks on our province and our country, “said Ford.
He went even further and attacked Queen's University in Kingston and said they had to be 'ashamed' that Musk went to school.
Ford, a member of the 'Tory' party of the country who opposes Prime Minister Trudeau's liberals, said about the decision: “They are only to blame President Trump. '
The prime minister added that this did not have to happen.

'We could have made our efforts to make Canada and the US the two richest, most successful, safest, safest, safest two countries on the planet. Unfortunately, a man – President Trump – has opted for chaos instead. '
Ford – who called a rapid election at the provincial level and claimed a mandate of the results – said he is willing to dig into his heels as long as Trump is willing to continue with the rates.
'We must also be ready to dig a long fight. We must be ready to escalate with every tool in our tool kit. '
Later in the day he spoke with NewsNation, where he said he wanted Americans to feel pain. '
'[Trump] Want to close the production factories in Ontario. He wants to destroy Canadian state food from their table until they cannot pay for their mortgages. Unacceptable. '

Trudeau was deeply disturbed by the news of Trump's intention to level a rate of 25 percent on Canadian goods imported into the United States, in which the decision was described as 'stupid'.
He announced that Canada would start implementing 25 percent rates for $ 155 billion in American goods, starting with $ 30 billion in products immediately.
“This is a time to hit hard and show that a fight with Canada will not have winners,” he said.
According to the US Census Office, the United States imported $ 412 billion in goods from Canada in 2024.
Trump has argued that the trade deficit with Canada shows that the United States deserves to give more rates to their imported goods.
The president warned Trudeau on Tuesday that the United States were willing to give extra rates to the economy of their country.
“Explain the Governor Trudeau, from Canada, that when he sets up a retribution rate on the US, our mutual rate will immediately rise by a similar amount!” Trump warned on social media.
'We subsidize them $ 200 billion a year. Canada can't make it without the US, “Trump said last week during a cabinet meeting. 'You know, Canada relies on US 95 percent. We rely on them 4 percent. Big difference. '

Trudeau threw between anger, frustration, challenging and sorrow during his extensive press conference in Ottawa.
“We are offended, we are angry, but we are Canadian, which means that we are going to stand up, we are going to fight … and we are going to win,” he said.
Trump has suggested that Canada should join the United States if they want to escape the rates.
“I say Canada should be our 51st state. There are no rates, nothing, “he said last week.
Trump also argues that, since the United States largely pay for the military safety of Canada, the country also has to pay more at rates.
“We protect Canada. But it's not fair. It is not fair that they do not pay their way. And if they had to pay for their way, they couldn't exist, “he said.
Canadians continue to explore ways to make the United States suffer as a result of the rates.
Ford confirmed that he was looking for cutting the Canadian energy from America.
Trudeau, who will leave this year at a certain moment after he has announced that he will not seek re -election, confirmed that his country will fight fire with fire

'They rely on our energy, they must feel the pain. They want to come hard on us, we will come back twice as hard, “said Ontario Prime Minister Doug Ford during a press conference.
Ontario exports electricity to American border states such as New York, Michigan and Minnesota.
The tariff news caused a sharp sale on Wall Street on Tuesday when the Dow fell more than 500 points.
Vice -President JD Vance said reporters on Capitol Hill on Tuesday that Trump would continue to negotiate with Canada, while the rates came into force, which suggests that they could get relief if they prevented Fentanyl from crossing the United States.
“We have to see real involvement in the fentanyl problem, about the drug problem, that is fundamentally the underlying element of these rates, is that we think that the Canadians have not been serious about stopping drug trafficking,” Vance said.
President Trump will appeal to the Congress of the United States on Tuesday evening and will not avoid an example of an example of controversial topics.
'Tomorrow night will be big. I will tell it as it is, “he wrote on Monday in all-caps on social media.
