Ontario Premier Doug Ford has called an early election to strengthen, he claims, his capacity to face down the Trump administration over tariffs. Is he the tough negotiator he presents himself to be? Is he as suited as he thinks to the new governing ethos of Trump 2.0? Read More

If Canada is hit with 25 per cent, across-the-board tariffs this weekend — or on March 1 if a leaked rumour is to be believed — it will be the result of a trade-warmonger with a protectionist axe to grind.
