Ontario is suspending its promise to add a 25 per cent surcharge on exports of electricity to some U.S. states, Premier Doug Ford said Tuesday afternoon.

"As you know, there's a very strong man in Canada who said he was going to charge a surcharge or tariff on electricity coming into our country. He has called and said he's not going to do that. And it would have been a very bad thing if he did. And he's not going to do that. So I respect that," Trump said.

ngl. I'm conflicted. Did Ford ease off too soon, or is this a way to reach an agreement?

Ford's always been a bitch. He's Trump's kind of person. He'll come out of this personally better off.
