Joly’s response echoes a pitch made by Ontario Premier Doug Ford, who threatened in mid-December to cut off energy supply to the northeastern United States, should the Trump tariffs become a reality.

The premier of Canada’s oil-rich province of Alberta says she would not support any move to stop energy shipments to the United States as a way to combat U.S.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says Canada needs to be prepared for tariffs to come into effect when Donald Trump takes office, but cutting off the supply of oil is not the answer.
