As tensions rise again between the U.S. and Canada, Ontario Premier Doug Ford made a notable statement directed at U.S. President Donald Trump. Ford argued that the tariffs and economic moves implemented by the Trump administration are leading to global instability, saying, "Trump's circle is tightening. How can one person, one man create such chaos in the world? I am eagerly awaiting the midterm elections."
The Premier of Ontario, Canada's most populous province, Doug Ford, criticized U.S. President Donald Trump's international practices, using harsh words towards the Trump administration. Ford stated that the circle around Trump is narrowing due to the uncertainties created by the U.S.'s high trade tariffs and economic policies, and he expressed his eagerness for the midterm elections in November.
"HOW CAN ONE MAN CREATE SO MUCH CHAOS?"
Speaking in Toronto, Ford pointed out that the high customs tariffs and strict trade policies implemented by Trump are shaking global economic balances, stating, "The circle around President Trump is narrowing. How can one person, one man create such great chaos in the world?"
Ford's remarks came at a time when judicial and political pressures regarding the Trump administration's trade policies have increased in the U.S.
STATEMENT AFTER THE SUPREME COURT'S DECISION
Ford's evaluations were made following the U.S. Supreme Court's annulment of some customs tariffs imposed by Trump under his emergency powers. The decision is being interpreted as drawing an important legal boundary against the economic moves of the Trump administration.
The Canadian leader argued that this decision could change the balances in U.S. domestic politics, stating that the process is being closely monitored.
Describing the trade relations between the U.S. and Canada as an "economic war," Ford said they would not back down in protecting Canada's interests. "We would prefer to make no deal at all rather than a bad deal," Ford stated, emphasizing that the steel, aluminum, and automotive sectors are directly affected by the tariffs imposed.
MIDTERM ELECTION MESSAGE
Doug Ford also referred to the midterm elections to be held in November in the U.S., saying that Trump's policies will face a serious test at the polls. Ford's statement, "I am eagerly awaiting the midterms," revealed that developments in U.S. domestic politics are being closely watched by Canada.
