Ontario premier says he's "ripping up" Starlink contract in response to U.S. tariffs

The leader of Canada's most populous province of Ontario said Monday that he's ripping up a contract with Elon Musk's Starlink internet service in response to U.S. President Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs on Canada.

A senior Canadian government official also said that Canada isn't confident that it can avoid the looming tariffs on Tuesday like Mexico did, because it feels like the goal posts shift more for Canada than Mexico. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, wasn't authorized to speak publicly.

Trump and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Monday that their planned tariffs were on hold for a month to give time for further negotiations. The statement was confirmed by the White House.
