Doug Ford makes good on threat to slap 25 per cent export tax on electricity to the U.S.

Premier Doug Ford has made good on his threat to slap a 25 per cent surcharge on electricity sold to the U.S. in retaliation for President Donald Trump‘s tariffs.

Raising an estimated $300,000 to $400,000 per day, the “tariff response charge” will be paid by utilities in New York, Michigan and Minnesota importing power from generators of electricity in Ontario.

Line 5? Bueller? Anyone?
