‘I am asking politely:’ Doug Ford says Ontario may mandate Canadian-made signage amid trade war

Premier Doug Ford says that his government will consider introducing legislation that would require retailers to place signage on shelves indicating whether a product is Canadian made amid a potential trade war with the United States.

Ford made the comment to reporters during a press conference on Monday as he discussed actions Ontario is prepared to take should President Donald Trump follow through on his threats of placing a 25 per cent tariff on most Canadian and Mexican good as soon as tomorrow.
