Ford assured, if the people of Ontario will support him with “strong, stable, four-year mandate”, he will “stand up and fight back”.
President Trump has announced before his inauguration that, he will establish an External Revenue Service (ERS) “to collect tariffs, duties and all revenue that come from foreign sources”.
The announcement forced Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, to hold a meeting with his Liberal Party Cabinet Ministers where they resolved to carry out a “national response” to ensure that Canadians are protected from “harmful US tariffs”.
According to Doug Ford: “President Trump is threatening steep and sweeping tariffs that would devastate our economy.
To protect Ontario, I’m asking the people for a strong, stable, four-year mandate. With your support, I’ll do whatever it takes to stand up and fight back.”
