Elections will now be held on Feb. 27, more than a year before the June 2026 fixed election date.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Opposition leaders have said that early elections are unnecessary because they would support Mr. Ford in defending the province and the country against tariffs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Ford has been making the rounds on American cable programs, including Fox News, to criticize Mr. Trump on tariffs. He also launched a multimillion dollar advertising campaign reminding viewers of Ontario\u2019s contributions of energy and minerals to the United States.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Trump reiterated his tariff threat on Thursday in remarks delivered to attendees of the Davos economic forum in Switzerland, saying that the United States does not need Canadian exports like lumber, oil and gas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWe have our own,\u201d said Mr. Trump.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async
