From Global News.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford is expected to deliver remarks in Toronto on Thursday after he told Global News that he would "turn off the lights to a million-and-a-half Americans." Ford’s comments come in retaliation to president-elect Donald Trump threatening to impose 25 per cent tariffs on all Canadian imports.

“If they come at us we have to stand up for Canadians, we have to stand up for Ontarians,” Ford said on Wednesday.

Sources in the Ford government describe the measures as “escalation maneuvres” that are still being fleshed out.

One source added the government is “deadly serious” about the approach, even if the Premier offered personal reservations about cutting off the power supply to millions of American homes and businesses.
