Woe Canada, Ontario claims to stand on guard for thee.
With the economy battered by U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war and unemployment rising, Premier Doug Ford’s government has tabled a record $232.5-billion provincial budget to “protect Ontario” and promote national unity.
“When all of Canada wins, Ontario wins,” Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy said Thursday in a boosterish speech that noted “it is amazing to witness the burst of patriotism across our province and our great country” in the face of Trump’s tariffs.
