Ontario Premier Doug Ford says Alberta Premier Danielle Smith understands why Canada’s political leaders need to be united in the face of U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff threat, and he believes the country’s premiers are “moving her along” in her position.
Perhaps Canada should raise a toast to Jack Daniel’s and Jim Beam? Maybe they have as much power around Donald Trump’s White House as Elon Musk and Robert Kennedy Jr. Or, at least enough sway to put a trade war — one that would hit the economies of Tennessee and Kentucky,
