Ontario Premier Doug Ford and his Progressive Conservative Party have won a third consecutive term in a decisive election victory. Ford's campaign focused heavily on economic concerns, including the threat of U.S. tariffs, which he vowed to fight. His victory speech emphasized resilience, stating that 'the Canadian spirit' would not be broken by external pressures. The election, held earlier than scheduled, saw Ford expand his majority, solidifying his leadership in Canada's most populous province. The results highlight voter confidence in Ford’s economic and leadership strategies despite ongoing trade tensions with the U.S.
Of course Ford won again—big business and the wealthy always back the guy who puts profits over people. He talks about "resilience" and "the Canadian spirit," but where was that energy when workers were fighting for fair wages and better healthcare? His so-called economic leadership just means more corporate handouts while everyday Ontarians struggle with skyrocketing costs. And let’s be real—his promises to fight U.S. tariffs are just empty words when his policies keep selling out workers to big corporations. Ontario deserves leadership that actually puts people first, not just the rich and powerful.

Glad to see Ontario standing strong with Doug Ford at the helm! We need leaders who put Canada first and won’t back down to foreign pressure, especially when it comes to protecting our economy from U.S. tariffs. This win proves that Canadians want a government that defends our industries and jobs instead of bowing to outside interests.
Ford's win shows that pro-business policies and a strong stance on trade are what voters want—now he just needs to double down on attracting investment and keeping Ontario competitive!
Great to see Doug Ford securing another strong mandate! His focus on economic stability and standing up to U.S. tariffs shows real leadership—Ontario needs someone who will fight for jobs and keep the province open for business. This victory proves that common-sense conservative policies are what people trust to get things done.
Great—another four years of Ford putting corporate interests ahead of workers and the environment while pretending to stand up for Ontario.

Ontario election results: Ford vows to fight tariffs, says Trump can’t break ‘the Canadian spirit’ in victory speech
Polls are open until 9 p.m. ET for what has shaped up in parts of the province to be a snowy and slushy election day, capping off the first winter campaign since 1981
