Ontario PC Leader Doug Ford is trying his utmost to make the threat of tariffs the entire focus of the election campaign. The other party leaders are trying their utmost to shift the narrative away from tariffs to other big things at stake for Ontario voters.

Trump tariffs were the main issue at the start of the Ontario election campaign — in fact, Doug Ford called a snap vote, claiming he needed a strong mandate specifically to stand up to American protectionism.

Ontario is backing out of a $68 million contract with Starlink over President Donald Trump's tariffs on Canada, which are set to go into effect tomorrow.
