He could get away with the beer - I believe he may pay some “consequences” if he arbitrarily cuts off power to American Citizens when Trump is in the WH..he isn’t a Head of State and, if he becomes a actual threat, he isn’t off limits....
Doug Ford is the Premier of Ontario. That equates to a state governor, which technically, if you understand the words, is literally “Head of State”.
That “measley” 1-2% is in two states that will suffer most from an energy shortage in the dead of winter.
Also, the beer: Canada imports from the USA about $30 million less than the USA buys from the frozen north. I’m surprised it’s that close, I only buy 2 types of American beer, and that’s rarely. My local distributor has had to send stale US beer (how can you tell?) back to the warehouser even in summer.
