The Ontario premier’s dire prediction comes as he and other provincial and territorial leaders meet Wednesday in Ottawa with Justin Trudeau.

U.S. president-elect Donald Trump has threatened to impose a 25 per cent tariff on Canadian goods when he comes back into office next week.

The premiers’ Council of the Federation, of which Ford is currently the rotating chair, will sit down with Justin Trudeau to hash out what the country will do to counter Trump’s tariff vow

Ontario Premier Doug Ford says provincial officials estimate that U.S. president-elect Donald Trump's proposed tariffs on Canadian goods could cost up to half a million jobs.
