‘Not going back’: Ford will cancel Starlink-Ontario deal even if tariffs are lifted | Globalnews.ca

On Tuesday, U.S. President Donald Trump slapped 25 per cent tariffs on the vast majority of Canadian imports, sparking a growing trade war between the two neighbouring countries.

Summary

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says the province will permanently cancel its $100 million contract with Elon Musk’s Starlink, even if U.S. tariffs are lifted.

The decision follows Trump’s 25% tariffs on Canadian imports, which prompted Ontario to ban U.S. firms from contracts.

Ford cited Musk’s ties to Trump as a factor and said he is willing to fight potential legal fallout.

Musk previously responded to cancellation threats with a dismissive “Oh well.”

    I hate to admit this, but I bet “that congressperson who gave her affair partner a sloppy handy at a children’s show” would also have worked.

    For reference, she and a man (not her husband, but a man she was there with) were kicked out of a local production of the stage musical “Beetlejuice”. She initially claimed it was because she was singing along with the musical, but footage later surfaced that showed she was giving him a handy in the middle of the audience.

    Know all of the panic about children at drag shows? Yeah, every single accusation from conservatives is a confession.
