Ontario Premier Doug Ford has warned that Canada may completely halt electricity exports to the United States if Washington escalates its new tariff measures. On Monday, a 25% tariff on electricity imports from Canada to the U.S. took effect. Ford stated that nearly 1.5 million American customers in Minnesota, New York, and Michigan would be affected. "Believe me, I don't want to do this. This trade war is Trump's doing," Ford said, adding that the tariff increase could push monthly electricity bills for American consumers up by as much as $100.
