My statement on Canada-U.S. trade negotiations:

[Doug Ford @fordnation]

Starting today and until U.S. tariffs are removed, Ontario is banning American companies from provincial contracts.

Every year, the Ontario government and its agencies spend $30 billion on procurement, alongside our $200 billion plan to build Ontario. U.S.-based businesses will now lose out on tens of billions of dollars in new revenues. They only have President Trump to blame.

We’re going one step further. We’ll be ripping up the province’s contract with Starlink. Ontario won’t do business with people hellbent on destroying our economy.

Canada didn't start this fight with the U.S., but you better believe we're ready to win it.

Fentanyl trafficking and the overdose epidemic is a shared public health crisis. Together, the U.S. and Canada are working 24/7 to ensure a secure border. In 2023, 0.2% of fentanyl seizures by U.S. authorities occurred at the northern border. #FriendsPartnersAllies

“Western and Central #Massachusetts alone export nearly $1.1 billion in goods and services to #Canada every year. And this #trade between us is part of a larger story, one that makes all of us more prosperous and keeps our two countries more secure." - @BernJordanCG 🇨🇦🇺🇸

[Kirsten Hillman @KirstenHillmanA]

Together, Canada and the U.S. are strengthening North American supply chains to safeguard national and economic security. This historic announcement marks the first time that the U.S. DoD has funded critical minerals projects in Canada, further signalling our shared commitment.

Vivian Silver, was a proud Israeli-Canadian and lifelong advocate for peace. I met her son in Tel Aviv, and he described her as kind, generous, and selfless. Canada mourns her loss with him and her loved ones.
