Global National: Jan. 24, 2025 | Ontario Premier Doug Ford confirms early election

- Опубликовано: 6 фев 2025
- Ontario Premier Doug Ford confirmed Friday he is dropping the writ next Wednesday, sending voters to the polls by the end of the month. Ford says he’s seeking a stronger mandate to tackle U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat of 25 per cent tariffs on all Canadian goods. Colin D’Mello reports.
Trump renewed his threat to slap Canada with sweeping tariffs again Friday, while claiming the U.S. no longer needs to rely on Canadian exports. His repeated comments have reignited a movement to reduce our reliance on the U.S. by knocking down inter-provincial barriers. Touria Izri explains.
In Ottawa, the race is underway to determine the new Liberal leader and Canada’s next prime minister. Former deputy prime minister Chrystia Freeland is making her case for why she should replace Justin Trudeau, as Mark Carney gains momentum in the race. And there is less than 50 days left in the campaign. Mackenzie Gray reports.
Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says his forces will not be withdrawing from southern Lebanon on Sunday, putting the ceasefire with Hezbollah on shaky ground. Israel says Lebanon has not replaced Israeli troops stationed in the country’s south. Redmond Shannon reports.

Provincial conservatives should have called for a leadership review instead of giving in to a self-serving election. Doug knows the next two years will be brutal for Canada, and his popularity is bound to tank. Just like Trudeau in 2021, calling an early federal election to cling to power, Doug is now pulling the same stunt provincially. This isn’t about the good of the people-it’s about protecting his own grip on power.
Why a leadership review when all polls have conservatives in the lead? You want to compare ford to Trudeau in terms of popularity?
Let him do it, we can't miss a chance to vote him out and decide IF we should JOIN USA or NOT ! I do NOT trust any politician to take decisions for us.
@@freddytang2128I dislike ford as much as Trudeau.
He's the new trudeau
doug ford is lying, hes calling the election to try to save trudeau and the liberals!!! its alright though we know its gonna backfire on doug ford because we're gonna have a pierre poilievre vs doug ford election and we know pierre poilievre wins and when he does wins, hes is gonna be the ones who will fix the boarders and stop those tariffs!
Doug Ford's handling of the Greenbelt scandal is disappointing. He publicly admitted to prioritizing personal greed over the interests of Canadians. Even though he apologized, it’s hard to ignore the damage done.
Doug Ford must go! Let's vote him out! Ontario deserves better.
His apology really means that he's not going to do it (be greedy) again.
But I just don't trust that.
@@mazkaibil9108 Agree . The charm offensive wears a bit thin.
What damage is that,?
Literally no damage was done .... also, next to no damage would have been done by those builds as they were set for cleared and empty old stripped farm land (that didn't even happen)
So whay damage?
"Canada is not for Sale". No, but Doug Ford is.
@@seanhiggins2740 Canada is not for sale. But all countries have to work together. Look at the EU!! It’s NOT selling out Canada to close the borders and stop the inflow of drugs and criminals. It’s good for the US, it’s good for Canada and it’s good for Mexico!! What’s wrong with that??
The entire Canadian political leadership is for sale, Ford is nothing special.
[Look at the EU!! It’s NOT selling out Canada to close the borders and stop the inflow of drugs and criminals.]
Germany literally sold out he most valuable EU principle, the Schengen Area, precisely because they had let immigration out of control and decided to close its borders.
Germany also destroyed its own economy at the behest of the US so that they could have their proxy war against Russia through Ukraine, destroying Ukraine in the process.
And that's just two examples, the rest of the EU, except for maybe Hungary, have all acted the same way.
What are you smoking?
Canada is NOT for sale? Could've fooled me. I'd say when I ride the bus about 85% of the riders are not the OG canadians. Bro. Canada got sold out by Trudeau. There was 30 million people in Canada for the longest time, now becoz of Trudeau it went up to 40 million people officially.
Trudeau let a bunch of cannibals into my neighborhood and they went into a bunch of houses at night, k1lled people, cut parts of the bodies up, cooked them in the kitchens. Stole all the valuables. Crazy town. This isn't the 1980s anymore folks.
@@lindakilmer2548 Ford has announced that there will be new programs for people who are experiencing drug use issues.
Q. Is he going to follow through on this?? Or did he just say that to sound good??
"Rehabilitation" (non-compulsory, of course!) should all be considered an IMPORTANT part of tackling the drug problem in our country.
Right now, people experiencing drug use problems are having to wait to obtain support in their struggle to survive.
As a result, many Canadians are dying needlessly!
❤️🇨🇦
Ontario deserves better.
$170million for the election? When will politician treat the tax money our hard earned money…..
Douggie needs to be sent a message.we are voting New Blue party.
He is not getting my vote this time. He served his purpose of getting wynne out of office
Fun fact: Ford engaged in even more government spending, privatization, and expensive non-refundable project cancellations that Wynne. I dislike Wynne but Ford was actually worse ... while pretending to be a better alternative.
New Blue.
@@lordfreerealestate8302 a lot of Ontarians consider her to be the second worst premier ever. Number one being obviously Ford and number three being Bob Rae.
i am an Ontario conservative ,its obvious FORD IS NOT !!!! He is working with Trudeau , he makes me sick , i will be voting for the new Blue party .
New Blue? Go throw your vote in the toilet, that’s your right.
The Tories need a Right Wing Populist overhaul unfortunately.
You, and 3 other people.
You sound like a really smart person.
Same!
STOP the tariff by fixing your immigration Ford never said anything against too many ppl coming to Ontario
time to vote him out
@@CyrusLi Sounds all too familiar 🇮🇴
I know that Doug has been experiencing a greater support due to his stance on the whims of the unfit president of our neighbouring country. Yet, let us not forget who Doug is and of his costlier decisions, actions, and statements that he has made throughout his career as a politician. The people of Ontario do deserve better as do the people in my province, Québec. Under the false pretence of protecting the French language and the identity of Québec, Legault is a disaster and is happiest/is in his true form when dismantling the human rights and opportunities of Canadians who call Québec their home. We are in an epoch of harmful politicians who get votes. It is troubling.
This man would side with Trump in a heartbeat, and has. He's a fraud and a liar.
Every time Doug does something that's nice, he threatens an election!
He just lost my vote!
Doug didn't make good on his promise to halt overreach on sex ed, he said if ppl can't afford rent, they should find a way to make more money, he only cares about booze and at this point I'm done.
Vote Doug out.
You don't genuinely care about anyone, so I'm not voting for you.
This guy is the biggest liar I've ever seen
He has almost all money of Onterio and now he wants to save his company by people money
Force all Amazon locations to be unionized
Boot Amazon out of Canada!
@@DAVIDSTEIN-v1o Even Better. No argument here.
@@DAVIDSTEIN-v1o So cancel thousands of more jobs and put everyone on welfare?
@@ZoomZoomMX3 Or seize the equipment before Beezos can pack it out of the country and pocket our subsidies. Never deal with known grifters ever again.
May Love Peace Prevail In The World....
Doug Fotd is a disgusting self serving corrupt politician. I left Ontario for Alberta. I hope Ford ens up with a minority government. 😮
🙏🌎🕊️
❤️🇨🇦🇺🇲
Thanks for the 200-dollar bribe, Dougie!
Feel free to donate to the food bank
Just a cheap shot political gimmick.
This is great. I had a teacher back in the 60s who talked about growing food this way and doing things locally in general which would save in terms of pollution with transportation all over the world.
Canada could grow its own food in this day and age. We have the knowledge and we should be doing it.
Doug the Slug…..nuff said.
Doug is the slime that comes out of the slug.
Say good bye Ford
One can only hope so. Jerk shouldn’t be putting us in this position at this time.
Take a look at new blue a true conservative party
Doug is just a barking🐶
Yeah REFERENDUM is NEEDED to ask the people if they want to join USA or NOT, this is a question that people need to respond NOT CORRUPT POLITICIANS !!!
Lol, we already know the answer is no
WE ARE PART OF THE COMMONWEALTH, RATHER BE IN THE COMMONWEALTH, THEN THE STATES
We aren't supposed to FIGHT with the US....
AGREE ! We should vote to decide if we should join USA or NOT - This is people's decision, NOT for CORRUPT POLITICIANS to DECIDE for us the people ! Politicians CAN be bought !
Gutless Canadjun, EH?
@@G16E-GTS_ Lol, a waste of money. When you have 90% of the population saying no in poll after poll a vote isn't needed. Besides, what politician in Canada is going to risk their career and reputation (and possibly their life) campaigning to join the U.S?
@@G16E-GTS_ Time for you to leave I guess, if do not like it here to da loo! Any thought of joining the united states of israel is lunacy.
We are part of the Commonwealth, rather be in the Commonwealth, then the states
GET RID OF DOFO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post Office gets $1B, not bad. We all should unionize.
Desperate Duggy. Out of touch.
Good bye ford we don't want u
Team Ford
We want a fed election next month or let Trump take Canada...this is fukin ridiculous...
Just move there most people don't want to be part America We are Canadain
Trudeau has F---ed up Canada so bad and he will just fly off into the moonlight
@momtur4875 you mean USA, Canada is in America😐
@@momtur4875 If we keep going like this, there will be no Canada left.
@@ghchic2568They clearly meant: 'Murica.
Well, Ford is not the best, but he's the best that we've got. He's got my vote.
World War brewing😢
I wouldn’t vote for Ford if he was the last politician on earth except for Heir Rump.
Or PP
Ah, the left and the right coming together.
@@commonsensecraziness7595 which is why he’ll either probably lose his majority or it’ll be a repeat of 1990
doug ford is small chicken in this role, its a waste of money tax payer to do voting, no see bright future.
Yaaaay! Neetu is back!
I think FORD is actually good for Canada first. Ontario needs a good leader for the next 4 years. Ive been against the idea of Ford in the past but damn he has earned my respect on this issue. Ford won't kiss the ring! That earns my respect.
Governor Ford you have my vote.
Voting lib, I see
Trudeau would be proud!
This guy ain't a conservative, the party needs a leadership review, not an election with this clown being the only option for conservatives.
He's not the only option.
Anyone who considers themselves a conservative could vote New Blue and send a message.
The only way I would ever vote conservative is if they get another Bill Davis and that's a big if
I'd go without Amazon to stick up to those who have fought to be unionized and lost
9:03 "beyond what SHOULD be constitutionallly allowed". In other words, it DOESN'T go beyond the constitution, but her opinion should trump the constitution.
outlaw DEI everywhere. its discriminatory
😂
It's already illegal they just selectively enforce the law
@@Rick-zw9kp No, it's literally Ontario law, thanks to Doug Ford.
It also is why Canada has the kangaroo courts known as the Human Rights Tribunal, an extra-judicial body dedicated to the promotion of DEI.
Jan. 25 2025 Liberals need a MAN leader because Donald Trump has no value or respect for Women😢 He wants CANADA and he doesn't care if it costs AMERICANS money.We need Strong men like Doug Ford and MARK CARNEY Work together. EMERGENCY! for CANADA Gisele Quebec❤😊
Doug Ford is a sellout. He will sell everything and privatize everything. He tried to touch the greenbelt by selling it to his friends and luckily government agencies stepped up to deny Ford's plans
I would whole heartedly support Canadian business before others if govt qould make it possible.
I am hopeful that if Mark Carney is elected prime minister, he would be able to work with our businesses to help Canada - and Canadians prosper.
Ford is smart. Bonnie Crombie just got her ticket to lead Liberals. Unfortunately, Ontario does not want a provincial election now. Ford still has a year of being Premier. This might be a dumb move and crush him. Crombie is not my choice but a lot of leftist will vote for her party. Karina and Chrystia come to mind as Liberal voters.😮
Go Doug Go, he's the only level of government that did t raise taxes!
Way to emphasize the name . What news channel is this again? Where am I?
A trampoline was picked up and tossed over a fence ! 😅
It's proof of the end times, or climate change, whichever makes you more afraid!
EVERY conservative on here PLEASE vote the New Blue Party in! We need a real conservative government looking out for Ontarians!
Live? Or prerecorded
Yes
What do you mean, it's all from the TV Six O' Clock news..... It's never live on YT.
Undeniably the best choice we have. Certainty not perfect but honestly who else ?
Hes certainly done a lot of good, much more than any perceived bad.
Bye bye Bonnie .
Take the liberal handcuffs off Doug ford, Ontario has the most seats to give Pierre a majority. Keep ford in
As a Canadian From Alberta we can not bend the knee to trump, regardless, i say cut Trumps America off from our oil and electricity, enough of this unfit president
A Covid-19 enquiry should have been called to know where the Healthcare system fell short.
The Canadian army had to come as well as medical staff from other province’s. People died because of Ontario’s inabilities. The Ford government is one of indifference towards the very people it should have protected.
The Canadian border was blockaded in protest, as well as the city of Ottawa. The Ford government failed to act. Now we are led to falsely believe he is going to protect the vulnerable.
Is it any wonder things are the way they are ?
🇨🇦✌🏼🇨🇦✌🏼🇨🇦🤨
He knows he's going to lose. Wants to exit stage left before the tariffs come in and he becomes the scapegoat.
Interesting take
Your coverage of illegal immigration was completely one sided. Numerous dangerous gang members and covicted criminals have been deported as well.
About Farm to Table: great idea but let at the end of it, more plastic of our bins! (Why they cannot use wood covered with a thin sheet of plastic or alike instead of hard plastic for the trays?)
Mark Carney, has my vote. Let's go CANADA!
Carney says- lets make higher taxes and more WEF control of Canada. There really is a small minority of dumb people in Canada. 9 years of Trudeau communism insanity wasn't enough for you?
❤🇨🇦🌎
Newark Mayor - enforce United States immigration policies or get ejected from office!
Yep Canadian free trade is needed and we need to make sure in an agreement it will be the case as long as its a Canadian company !!!
This is typical of Canadians, we are nice to others but completely the opposite with fellow Canadians. Get rid of the provincial barriers ffs!
Yes, we need to get rid of provincial barriers - right now, especially. It would apparently help ease prices by around 15% anyway. Not to mention red tape etc.😊
What the heck! Why? It’s not needed at this time.
So Ford can spend millions of tax dollars to grab four years of power instead of focusing his energy on serving the people who elected him and guiding us through the tariff crisis. I won't be voting for Ford!
Doug ford will lose! Ontarian’s MUST VOTE!!!!
I'll vote for Doug ☺️
@@bobbyjohnson1086why? 😂
@@WhenTheyToldTheTruth ndp & libs suck of course
@@WhenTheyToldTheTruth You needed to ask, seek help
@@georgesimon6041well thought out answer, seek help.
Wow! It's going to cost taxpayers $175 million bucks for this election!
Canada need a federal election let Conservative Party leader coming good for canada as they can get good deal with trump !
He or no Con will ever get my vote.
I like your automated Xbox name 😂
101😂010 is that you 😂
If Canada is such a great friend to the US, why are American berries competing with Mexican berries at the grocery store, Mr. Ford? Fair-weather friend at best.
Does Ford wear a vest ? Politicians Tax us then Trump Taxes them ??? Something wrong with this picture !!!
How clueless is chrsytia that she feels she can be a party leader. I wouldn't have her lead a Santa Claus parade!
And too, a referendum about our health care system and our educational system, both of which he keeps dismantling!
And what about that fantastic electric future for Ontario that he promised - The electric car production and the battery production? Is all that going down the drain too??
Pure panic and no plan at all
As far as I know, the federal gov't cannot purchase from Amazon. They're not an approved vendor.
Captain Canada? Really? Pfffff the Alberta premier is the only one doing their job.
I didn’t know that begging was a job.
She must be part of the worlds oldest profession.
With over a year left with him in, this wastes taxpayers money
WE DON.T WANT FORD FOR GOVERNMENT OF CANADA WE THE PEOPLE OF CANADA WANT TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT OF CANADA
Ford is ineligible to be the prime minister of Canada because he does not know how to speak French.
Canada is a sovereign country + therefore not a state of the United States.
No flight with USA big Neighbour not good for canada ,need Pierre Poilievre be leader of canada as he can get good deal from Trump , canada need federal election coming earlier
illegal migrants mean they broke the law at the first place, why you said there is no evidence 😂
i need that hat Doug
🙏
Ford’s got to go
Good I agree he can defend the against the oligarchs from Washington.
Personally, I think that Mark Carney would be the best one to deal with Donald Trump in the south, as Dr . Carney has extensive (real world) experience in finance- in his educational qualifications (PhD in economics) + in his work as Governor of Bank of Canada and then Governor of the Bank of England.
He was also the United Nations special envoy for climate action and finance.
Canada is privileged that this gentleman wants to be our prime minister.
❤️🇨🇦
Was carbon tax carney the financial adviser to Justin Trudeau back when Trudeau claimed the budget would “ balance itself”?
Everyone knows Justin Trudeau definitely wasn’t personally paying any attention to it, he said so himself.
Mark Carney only became involved with Canada as an advisor to the PM in 2020 (to help us get through Covid).
❤️🇨🇦
Why is there no other conservative leader other than ford? He isn't a conservative we need a new leader for ontario he won't work with trump
Doug times are up hes been a long time power taker for to long with no valid points of interest.
Free trade in Canada!!!
Poilievre 2025! 👍❤️🇨🇦
Yup. Once again its Ontario that is so selfish in the grand scheme of Canadian " unity ". Alberta is miles ahead of Doug Ford's prime focus.
Uber aut from Canada!!!
is he printing logos for hats now
❤❤
More like Donald Dump. Eh
Doug ford is a big believer in Justin's wackenomics theories vote him out.
Um, I think you got that one wrong (?)
This didn’t work in Trudeau’s favour either
Lmao. I don’t buy it
Freeland or Carney, No way!!! We the public want someone better and real.
ONTARIO! No more woke liberal government! The test of Canada can’t afford it!!
Don't worry, they're desperately trying to find a lying puppet you'll trust.
They might have found one in Pierre Poilievre.
Guess you don't know much about Carney.
@ I know he ain’t worthy of being a PM as he is similar to Trudeau plus he is a rich man’s playboy. A great country like Canada needs a strong and a wise leader who will care for the middle and lower class plus the Indigenous.
@@shantomathew87 I too wanna see the poor, our indigenous and the middle class do well. I think Carney can help, as he knows the ins and outs of economics. And I think his head and heart are in the right place, pretty much. We'll never get a perfect PM!
PP won't. He'll just make a good lap dog for Trump.
Make Canada Great Again.
Canada is great, all ways has been.
@albertbangma8889
You're right. Canada has never had ups or downs.
It's just a constant utopia. It's almost unbelievable.
