Then the American economy will adapt to the lack of Canadian electricity.
Do it crap head and watch the lawsuits roll in on your goat smellin’ ass.
Trump already responded
From truth social:
Why would our Country allow another Country to supply us with electricity, even for a small area? Who made these decisions, and why? And can you imagine Canada stooping so low as to use ELECTRICITY, that so affects the life of innocent people, as a bargaining chip and threat? They will pay a financial price for this so big that it will be read about in History Books for many years to come!
they really have not learned anything
if Bondi and Patel don’t start arresting people FAST hey will think everything is same old same old.
They need to remind people that only the first whistleblowers get the best deals
What is it with the neighbors to the north that don’t want to stop Fentanyl being smuggled across their border into the US? Are they that dumb?
Pretty soon he’ll have better name recognition in the US than the Canadian PM. He can probably thank his crackhead brother for that.
Go ahead FATSO!
I wonder if Canada understands what will happen if an “all out” trade war/tariff war takes place.
One MOAB detonated in an air burst over Ontario would send an unmistakable message.
Short sighted, shallow thinking. The US will adapt so we will have no reliance on their electricity. Ford loses the war.
F off fat boy!
F off fat boy!

In a way, Ford’s threat would be a good thing as it would motivate us to further develop our own energy sources.
Unfortunately, too many states are run by idiot Democrat governors. They’d rather stick to their failed green agenda than do anything practical.
The boy played his ace but Trump holds, well, a trump card. Game over.
The response I would like to hear from Trump:
“For reasons of Nation Security I am ordering an immediate project for the Army Corps of Engineers to construct energy grid connections to domestic sources of energy and eliminate our dependency on Foreign energy.”
A lot of the power that Canada generates is hydro and is very cheap to produce. I read a few years ago that people in Quebec pay something like 6 cents for a killowatt hour of electricity. Of course I don’t know if Canadian power sent to the US is billed at 6 cents...or 25 cents...per killowatt hour.
The eastern side of Canada is completely dependent upon US natural gas lines. They can’t transport gas from the west of Canada to the east of Canada without going through the US. They have much more to lose by this escalation than the US does. Bring it on Snow Mexicans!
We in the USA are getting an object lesson on how being overly dependent on other countries on essential services and products affect us.
What happens when some of the drugs being manufactured overseas are cut off?
