Ontario Premier Doug Ford has a message to President Trump and to all Americans. Premier Ford promises to dismantle the U.S. economy if President Trump continues to threaten tariffs and trade sanctions.
Considering the economy of the USA is ten-times larger than Canada, that’s quite a threat from Premier Doug Ford. WATCH:

Personally, I think all this back-and-forth banter is no longer worth the surface effort. It would be much easier, and now affirmed as constitutionally appropriate by the Supreme Court, if President Trump just executed a full trade embargo against all Canadian goods for a period of 60-days.
Perhaps that way Canada will recognize just how vulnerable they are. Perhaps not, but it’s worth the effort. Just ban all imports and exports for 60-days and let’s see what happens.
Isn’t this guy a crackhead? Anyway I am Sundance on this one. Let’s just cut them off and see who needs who!
No, that was his brother.
He sounds like a Muslim with his impossible threat.
Yes. Absolutely.
Next, kick them out and keep them from coming in.
”Dismantle the U.S. economy” indeed.
Bring it on.
His brother is Rob Ford, former mayor of Toronto. He is the one who had drug problems.
Canada needs our market. We don’t need theirs. That sums it up.
They can threaten and bluster and stick out their chests all they want, but in the final analysis we don’t need their market.
We might have to station the military on the Canadian border when the Chinese take over their country however.
See current day Cuba for more details.
Ford is a bigger blowhard chump than even Carney.
That said, stop all ex/im for 90-days on a statistical reporting boundary so they have one quarter of extremely obvious and largely unspinnable data that will confront them. Don’t spread it across quarters.
South Park had it right, let’s get the invasion on and clean out the scum.
Canadian leverage.
was that “beaver” or “tail”?
“Just ban all imports and exports for 60-days and let’s see what happens.”
The cost of diesel fuel going through the roof. If I remember correctly from the various articles I have read since the war with Iran started, we get 70 – 80% of sour crude needed for refining of diesel and jet fuel from Canada.
Diesel comes primarily from light crude
No it does not.
According to this article https://sonar21.com/the-sour-crude-problem-why-americas-refineries-depend-on-imports-and-why-it-is-relevant-to-the-strait-of-hormuz/
You can not distill diesel or jet fuel from light crude.
Here’s a link to the break down by country of imported oil. https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/pet_move_impcus_a2_nus_ep00_im0_mbblpd_m.htm. In April of this year we imported 7,895 bpd from all countries. Of the 7,895 bpd, 1,237 came from OPEC countries of which Venezuela is a member. Venezuela contributed about 25% of the 1,237. Non OPEC countries contributed 6,658 bpd of which Canada contributed 4,679 bpd. All of this oil is sour crude which is needed for distilling diesel, jet fuel and other distillates.
Im tired of this BS
be better if EVERYTHING came unglued
Or until they put the damn fires out
I’m confident Canadians CTreeHouse are prepping for the financial disaster about to befall them.
Ontario auto plants will continue to idle and grow worst, some already have ended their 2nd shift operations.
18+% unemployment in Ontario
UAW Wins! Unifor Loses!
