Ontario Premier Doug Ford says Canada will “never be the 51st state," rebuking U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s latest social media post. Ford made the remark while appearing on CTV News Toronto’s Toy Mountain segment on Wednesday night. “Canadians take care of Canadians. We don’t need to be anybody’s 51st state,” Canadian actor and comedian Mike Myers said in a video aired during the segment. The premier agreed.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford said Tuesday that U.S. president-elect Donald Trump's threat to slap a 25 per cent tariff on all Canadian goods is "like a family member stabbing you right in the heart."
"It's the biggest threat we've ever seen ... It's unfortunate, its very, very hurtful to Canadians and Americans on both sides," Ford said to media at Queen's Park.

This would affect around 1.5 million Americans in Michigan and other states close to the border.
He then pretty much immediately followed up the announcement by saying he was considering giving the cops the right to forcefully remove homeless encampments. So. One step forward a dozen steps back
Trump reportedly responded to the sanctions by saying it was “fine”. Personally (opinion here forwards) it probably isn’t good to cut off power to 1.5 mil Americans (which will def affect the lower class pretty heavily) but Doug Ford actually might be doing something to try to help Canadians for possible the first time in his political career??

In Ontario, the premier (equivalent of a governor in the US) says he may cut off electricity to the US if Trump's 25% tariffs on Canadian exports go into effect.
Trump has threatened to impose a 25% tax on all products entering the U.S. from Canada and Mexico unless they stem the flow of migrants and drugs. “We're going to put our list together, and I'm sure the other provinces will as well. But we will go to the full extent, depending on how far this goes. We will go to the extent of cutting off their energy,” Ontario Premier Doug Ford said after meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and other provincial premiers. Ford said he didn't want this to happen but wasn't optimistic Canada could avoid tariffs. “This fight is 100% coming on Jan. 20 or Jan. 21,” he said, referencing to the date of Trump’s inauguration. “We will use every tool in our tool box to fight back. We can’t sit back and roll over. We just won’t as a country. And isn’t this a shame, our closest friends and allies."
Although Ontario itself has negligible oil production, that's not true in the west of Canada.
About 60% of U.S. crude oil imports are from Canada, and 85% of U.S. electricity imports as well. It wasn't immediately clear if Ford was talking about all Canadian provinces cutting off energy exports to the U.S. or just his province. But a spokeswoman for Ford, Grace Lee, said it was raised in the call between Trudeau and the provincial premiers. “Premier Ford can only speak on behalf of Ontario, but its an area of provincial jurisdiction that we would certainly look at,” Lee said in an email. Lee noted Ontario powered 1.5 million homes in the U.S. in 2023 and is a major exporter of electricity to Michigan, Minnesota and New York.
Despite Trump's promise to "drill! drill! drill!", an abrupt cutoff of Canadian imports would create disruptions in the US.
Canada has other exports which the US needs.
Canada is also the largest foreign supplier of steel, aluminum and uranium to the U.S. and has 34 critical minerals and metals that the Pentagon is eager for and investing for national security. “Canada, of course, will respond to unjustified tariffs,” Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said after the meeting.
Canada needs to kick Trump's ample butt right from the start if it doesn't want to be threatened by him constantly.

Five supervised drug consumption sites are slated to close in Toronto after the provincial government announced a ban on such facilities near schools and child-care centres — a move that some harm-reduction experts are slamming as a "deadly mistake."
Health Minister Sylvia Jones made the announcement Tuesday at the Association of Municipalities of Ontario (AMO) conference in Ottawa.
"In Toronto, there's been numerous stories of altercations, stabbings, shootings and even a homicide in the vicinity of these sites," Jones said at the conference.
"Our first priority must always be protecting our communities, especially when it comes to some of our most innocent and vulnerable — our children."

Make no mistake, people will die as a result of this decision. The claim to be "protecting children" is being used yet again to excuse putting the lives of marginalized people at risk.
If the government really cared about not having people consume substances in front of children, they would support supervised consumption sites! By giving people a place to consume drugs safely, you give people an alternative to using drugs on the streets (where, incidentally, children often are)! And what about the children whose loved ones experience addiction? The children whose family members might OD without these resources?
But as usual, they're lying when they say it's about protecting children. It's not about that. It never is.
This is actually about not valuing the lives and safety of people who experience addiction. This is about thinking that it's a waste of money and resources to keep people who use drugs safe, doing a cost benefit analysis with people's lives on the line. This about deciding that an entire group of people are expendable for no other reason than that they use drugs. Pretending that if we remove support and resources for them, all these people will simply go away.
I'm so sick of the "protecting children" line being brought out whenever people need an excuse to be cruel. More often than not, the actions being described as a way to defend children actually cause them harm.
It's not protecting children to deny the existence of trans people. It's not protecting children to deny them sex ed. It's not protecting children to remove a source of safety for people who use drugs.
You can't protect children by sacrificing the safety and well-being of marginalized people.
