Mark Carney and Donald Trump in 'deep discussions' on trade: Doug Ford
Ontario Premier Doug Ford says Prime Minister Mark Carney is in 'deep, deep discussions' on trade with U.S. President Donald Trump. Ford says he spoke with Carney on Wednesday and told him the best outcome would be a swift deal with the U.S. to drop Trump's tariffs on Canadian products. Ford also says that if that deal does not come through in the next few days, Canada should 'come out guns a-blazing' and match Trump's new steel and aluminum tariffs with retaliatory levies of its own. Ford, speaking at the Ontario legislature, says he is in contact with Carney on an 'almost daily' basis. Start your day with a roundup of B.C.-focused news and opinion.
