Doug Ford, the Canadian politician loudly contesting Trump’s ‘America First’ trade policy


Since Donald Trump began his second term, Canadian politician Doug Ford has become one of the loudest international voices to contest the US president’s “America First” trade policy.

The Ontario premier is now a ubiquitous presence on US cable news as he pushes back against US tariffs on Canadian goods while telling Americans that “Canada is not for sale” in the face of Trump’s threat to turn it into the 51st state.

Here’s how the leader of Canada’s most populous province became one of the standard bearers of Canada’s response to the Trump administration.

Actually Ford did not back down. The US gov't called Ford and begged him to come to the table to talk.

Dufus Dougie likes nothing better than having his fat face on the TV, especially Dumbfcukingstan TV.

He's loving all this tariff nonsense hoping the Dotard continues for the next 4 years.
