In breaking political news, it looks like Ontario Premier Doug Ford is planning to call a provincial election next Wednesday, January 29th, according to multiple sources. This announcement sets the stage for what could be a pivotal moment for the province, especially with looming 25 per cent tariffs on Canadian goods, which could come into effect as early as February 1.
If this happens, Ontarians will head to the polls on February 27th. This election would come more than a year ahead of schedule, as the next election was originally set to take place in June 2026.
Stay tuned for more updates as the election timeline is formally announced.
