Ontario Premier Doug Ford says the province plans on moving ahead with a tax on electricity sent to several U.S. states starting early next week.
Ontario plans to impose a 25% tax on electricity exports to the U.S. starting next week, despite a temporary tariff reprieve from the U.S. This action is in response to U.S. tariffs on Canadian imports, with Premier Ford stating it's a reaction to President Trump's actions. The province had previously threatened to cut off energy supply to the U.S., but the immediate plan is to implement the surcharge.
