As much as I've liked Ford's strong response, I honestly hope that the Feds tell him to cool his jets for now and just leave things as is until at least April 2nd. Don't escalate this any further from our side and just continue with the dollar for dollar equal tariffs.
CBC mentioned that Carney has already spoken to Ford over the phone today and will be meeting with him tomorrow.

Kinew has pretty much taken the same stance as Ford. Manitoba might not be as influential as Ontario, but they do provide some electricity to the U.S.
