The Canadian province of Ontario has decided to cancel a $100 million contract with Starlink in response to retaliatory tax measures imposed by the US government. The agreement, signed in 2024, was aimed at providing internet access via satellite to 15,000 remote homes and businesses in the region. However, following the tax imposed by the Trump administration on Canadian goods, Ontario has taken the decision to terminate the contract. Additionally, Ontario has banned American companies from bidding on government contracts as a further response to the trade dispute initiated by President Trump. This move demonstrates Canada’s readiness to stand up in the face of economic challenges.
TLDR: Ontario cancels Starlink contract and bans US companies from government procurements in response to US tax measures.
