I’m extremely disappointed that President Trump has chosen to walk away from a trading relationship that for decades has made life better for millions of workers on both sides of the border.
I wish we weren’t here. I wish Ontario and Canada were working together with our American friends and allies to make our two countries the richest, most successful, safest, most secure on the planet. Instead, President Trump has chosen to move forward with tariffs that will only hurt America and make Americans poorer. Canada now has no choice but to hit back and hit back hard.
As Premier of Ontario, the federal government has my full support for a strong and forceful response that matches U.S. tariffs dollar for dollar. Canada has so much of what America needs: high-grade nickel and other critical minerals, energy and electricity, uranium, potash, aluminum. We need to maximize our points of leverage and use them to maximum effect. The federal government needs to also pursue every legal route to challenge these unfair, unjustified and illegal tariffs.
The coming days and weeks will be incredibly difficult. Trump’s tariffs will devastate our economy. They’ll put 450,000 jobs at risk across the province. Every sector and region will feel the impact.
With a strong, stable, four-year mandate that outlives and outlasts the Trump administration, I’ll do whatever it takes to protect Ontario, our workers, businesses and communities. I’ll invest tens of billions to retrain workers for new opportunities, retool companies for new customers, reshore supply chains and rebuild roads and highways to create new jobs. I’ll make tough choices to make Ontario’s economy the most competitive place to invest, create jobs and do business.
None of us want to be here, but Canada and Ontario have faced down this kind of challenge before. Each time, we’ve emerged stronger, more united, more determined than ever. Canada and Ontario will once again answer the call.
Together, we’ll meet this moment. We’ll stand united. We’ll stand strong.
Together, we’ll protect Ontario.
Today marks 10 incredible years since I landed in Canada as an immigrant!
To those who mentored, supported and gave me a chance along the way, thank you for being an integral part of this incredible journey. 🙏🏾🫶🏾🇨🇦❤️🍁 #10YearsInCanada#Gratitude#JourneyOfGrowth#Thankful

@i_am_eyitayo And again. There is nothing wrong with comparison. We carry our work culture into every other company will move to, until we are baptized with the “new culture”
@i_am_eyitayo He will adjust. We’ve all been there. Life is never a bed of roses. If she doesn’t teach him. The street will.Either way, he learns.
But don’t discourage women who cook everyday. There’s nothing bad with it. Our values and priorities are different. Let’s learn to respect it
