Ontario Premier Declares War on U.S.: ‘We’ll Inflict as Much Pain as Possible on Americans’
Ontario Premier Doug Ford has declared economic war on the United States, vowing to inflict maximum pain on Americans amid an escalating trade dispute with the Trump administration. Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Ford made his intentions clear, signaling a bold escalation in the cross-border conflict.
“We’re going to ensure we hit the American people as hard as we can without hurting Canadians,” Ford stated during the press conference. His remarks come as tensions over trade policies continue to strain relations between Ontario, Canada’s economic powerhouse, and the U.S., with both sides digging in for a prolonged battle.

Infowars.com reports: The menacing comment came in response to Trump announcing a new 25% tariff Wednesday on cross-border auto trade.
Ford said he was caught off guard by the tariff which could impact all vehicles imported into the U.S. from Canada beginning on April 3.
The Ontario premier suggested U.S. vehicle costs will dramatically increase due to the tariffs, adding, “I know President Trump likes telling people ‘you’re fired.’ I didn’t think he meant auto workers in the U.S. when he said that.”
Again threatening the American public, Ford said, “We just aren’t going to roll over. We’re going to retaliate and he’s going to feel the pain from the American people.”
However, this isn’t the first time the politician has talked tough when it comes to the tariff war.
Earlier this month, Ford quickly buckled by suspending a 25% tax on electricity exported to the U.S. just hours after POTUS hiked Canadian steel and aluminum tariffs.
Before he caved, the Canadian “progressive conservative” threatened to shut off electricity to several U.S. states completely.
All it took was a strongly worded Truth Social post by Trump to get Ford to come to his senses.
Perhaps the master negotiator Donald Trump will again force Ford to his knees after boldly stating he’ll intentionally inflict pain on the American people.

He sounds like he hates the U.S. for trying to recover lost funds.
