Ontario says it's "ripping up" a contract with Starlink in response to U.S. tariffs on Canada.
"Ontario won’t do business with people hellbent on destroying our economy," Premier Ford says.
Ah, the “cut off your own nose to spite your face” gambit. I don’t think that is going to work.
LMAO Nose - face, so much spite.
Just what exactly will Ontario use instead, there is literally no other player in the game.
I am sure they will either create a subpar alternative or find someone who can provide a subpar alternative, more power to them.
Morons. Plus Elon’s legal department might have something to say about violating the terms of the contract.

Oh no, Elon will lose thousands of dollars over this!! /s
“Ontario won’t do business with people hellbent on destroying our economy,” Premier Ford says. …Then Ontario should immediately cease “doing business with” Doug Ford, because that’s what he is doing.
Canada never misses an opportunity to punish its citizens. Particularly rural ones.
All these foreign pukes expect America to business with people hellbent on destroying America’s economy.
effem
HOORAY Elon!
Ontario is Europe wannabe but isn’t
I thought Starlink was a way for people to get internet without having ground side a provider? Just a receiver hooked to a modem a little power and your good to go, where’s the government in this?
Elon will smile at this and fart in your direction...
I suppose he could tell his tech staff to not allow data to pass through Starlink to any ip located in Ontario... a VERY consequential thing..
This isn't about outrage at Elon Musk, this is about blocking access to free exchange of information.
Although since StarLink is satellite based, is Kanada's Trudeau Castreau going to send out officers looking for antennas like the Stasi did before the fall of the Berlin Wall? These ones are a lot smaller than the 3 foot (yes, that's feet, not meter) dishes back in the day.
And we won’t do business with a Country that allows criminals and drugs to freely flow across the border.
Canada appears to be run by complete imbeciles, top to bottom.
I’m sure the Ontario companies that manufacture paper cups and long strings have been waiting for this pivotal moment in history.
Leftists all behave like hormone filled PMS women
So now Elon is worth only 400 billion dollars? The Canadian dollar is so low its really worth anything unless they pay him in American dollars anyway.
It’s particularly the women’s vote in 416/905 (Toronto area) that is that great deal of the problem.
....aaaaand rural Canadian’s can still buy it...this must be a blip of noise on a spreadsheet.
