On Monday, Ford introduced a 25 per cent surcharge on energy exported from Ontario to Michigan, Minnesota and New York as a response to tariffs.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford imposed a 25% surcharge on electricity exports to the U.S. in response to U.S. tariffs. Ford threatened a complete cutoff, but to do so, Ontario would need to reduce its own energy output, likely by decreasing hydroelectric production. Ontario relies on agreements with the U.S. to maintain its electricity system's affordability, reliability, and sustainability.
