Isnt a contract something that you get in trouble for ripping up and not paying? Like that's the definition of a contract

[-] Master@lemm.ee 12 points 4 months ago

Depends on the contract and the clauses. We dont know what it says or how its worded.

If the penalty is less than the increased tarrifs then they're still saving money

Ford is turning into a Canadian conservative which is great to see.

Too bad the Federal leadership is Pierre Pouilivre who is trying his best to imitate Trump and US style politics, a culture war to divide us NOT conservative policies and helping people...

Maybe this will wake up Canadian Conservatives to how toxic their party has become....

Ford is still an idiot he's just a Canadian idiot first.
