Ontario Premier Doug Ford said on the final day of the Canadian premiers' meeting that the Trump administration is treating Canada like an enemy. After a day of talks focused on domestic issues such as bail reform and health transfers, Canada's premiers showed unity against US President Donald Trump's threat of a trade war.
