Ontario has agreed to suspend its 25 per cent surcharge on electricity exports to the U.S., a joint statement from Premier Doug Ford and U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick states.

What the fuck?!

I'm not surprised at all. Ford is a well known Trump cuck. He has to make appropriate noises to keep sitting at the top, but he was never going to hold fast on the surcharges.

He is one of the leaders in the country I am looking up to right now, him and 9 other premiers really. Saskatchewan’s DUI hire and Smith are the two I am looking down on, they have really sold out to the terrorist.

When I saw it on CPAC I thought he should have kept the surcharge on until after the meeting, but understood why he removed it. He was being extended an “olive branch” he did not want to push away. Then however I saw some US broadcasters talking about it and I thought he holds the card, he should keep it surcharged and make them come up rather than him going down for a shake down.
