Toronto Mayor Warns U.S. Over Power Export Threat | Canada News
Description
Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow is hinting at cutting Ontario’s electricity exports to the U.S. as leverage in a brewing trade dispute, suggesting higher prices might force American attention back to negotiations. Echoing Premier Doug Ford’s “everything’s on the table” stance, Chow frames the move as necessary to end uncertainty and promote “buy Canadian.” Former minister Ralph Goodale backs the idea, urging Canada to stand firm and keep all options open — but critics warn such a drastic step could irreparably damage the vital U.S.-Canada relationship. With elected officials holding the final say, Canadians are left wondering if this aggressive posture truly serves national interests or risks alienating their most important trading partner.
