Ford folded: after the tariff decision was paused (not cancelled, paused) dutifully restocked shelves and the overpaid StarLink deal is back on.
His “Canada is not For Sale” schtick is just that: a schtick. Mark my words, if Trump wanted to build housing on greenbelt land, Ford would Get It (Doug Ford) Done! He (Ford) is the most for-sale politician in the country, and that’s saying something when you’re competing with Danielle Smith.
Susan Holt in NB did a good job. American goods are still off the shelves.
Trump is engaged in brinksmanship and we need US trade more than vice versa. I think the correct move is to publicly back down - but also remind Canadians that a one month reprieve is nothing.
Once you play a card, you lose it. Right now Ford can still play that card. Manitoba can’t (and that makes the national level impact weaker).
