Ontario’s 25 Percent Tariff on US Electricity Begins

A 25% tariff on electricity sent by Ontario, Canada, to the U.S. began Monday.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford last week said his province would slap a 25% export tax on electricity it sends to 1.5 million homes in New York, Michigan, and Minnesota, The Wall Street Journal reported.

The move is to counter President Donald Trump’s 25% tariff on Canadian imports.
