Ontario to Slap Export Tax on Electricity to U.S.

I hope provinces extend this to all critical exports, including potash, nickle, uranium and oil.

The US deserves to suffer for this trade war. You guys elected this dictator from Temu, you should bleed as much as he's going to make Canada bleed.

Potash, Uranium & Oil are from Saskatchewan & Alberta. Those provinces won't put on an export tax because that would be "unfair" to those two deeply conservative provinces. There are a lot of MAGA supporters in those two provinces.

Tariffs are put on at the federal level, not the provincial level, but your misunderstanding is very common.

The US themselves are tariffing potash at 25% from Canada coming into the US.

In Canada

> Section 91(2) of the Constitution Act, 1867 gives Parliament exclusive jurisdiction over “the regulation of trade and commerce.”

The province of Ontario is in the headline of this article.

Ah, I see our disconnect. You are talking about export taxes and I am talking about the federal government.
