The Ontario government sponsored Fox News host Sean Hannity’s prime-time interview with Donald Trump and Elon Musk, part of the multimillion-dollar advertising campaign the province is rolling out as the U.S. President repeatedly threatens to impose tariffs on Canadian goods.
While the campaign is expected to cost tens of millions of dollars, the province is refusing to say exactly how much money is being spent on the ads, including the one for Hannity, one of the highest-rated U.S. cable news shows. Fox also did not respond to requests for comment about the cost and frequency of the ads.
If I’m getting a cheque I want a refund for this.
Fuck Fox, fuck Hannity, and fuck Doug Ford.
I gave $600 to my local NDP candidate, which once the donations tax refund are sorted is covered by the $200 cheque that buffoon tried to bribe me with.
Side note: Is Hannity doing the Donald Trump toddler with toddler dance?
DO NOT TRUST CONSERVATIVE. NEVER. Doug Ford is a conservative. He’s playing the “Independent Canada” card until he’s re-elected but will bend in front Pedo-Don as soon as he will find personal benefit. He was praising him just a few months ago! We cannot trust the right-wingers, they wont hesitate to throw anything under the bus for personal gain.
Doug Ford is just large, corrupt fish in the small pond of Canada (Yes, we are small on the world stage) who is afraid of having his kingdom annexed and take away by more powerful fools (Trump/Musk/et al) than he.
THAT is why he is rallying for Canada.
End of story.
Ontarians, it’s up to you to vote out this chucklefuck Ford. What the actual hell??
I’m voting against him later today. LFG Ontario, we can’t allow more of this.
I trudged through snowbanks to vote against him yesterday.
I’m doing my part. Fuck the cons.
WTF
The Ontario government sponsored Fox News host Sean Hannity’s prime-time interview with Donald Trump and Elon Musk, part of the multimillion-dollar advertising campaign the province is rolling out as the U.S. President repeatedly threatens to impose tariffs on Canadian goods.

Fox also did not respond to requests for comment about the cost and frequency of the ads.
The sponsorship ad aired during Tuesday night’s Hannity, before Mr. Hannity’s pre-recorded interview with Mr. Trump and Mr. Musk, the tech entrepreneur and Tesla CEO who leads the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) initiative in the Trump administration.
“This program is brought to you by Ontario, Canada, your trusted economic partner,” the ad said, accompanied by an “Ontario Canada” logo with a maple leaf. It was followed by an Ontario government commercial that showcases the strong economic ties between the two countries.
I A spokesperson for Ontario Progressive Conservative Leader Doug Ford’s re-election campaign said the sponsorship is part of the province’s original deal with Fox and that no new money is being spent during the campaign, which will see Ontarians go to the polls on Feb. 27.
As part of our U.S.-based marketing campaign that’s raising awareness about Ontario’s importance to America’s economic success, Fox offered the province the opportunity to sponsor programming,” Grace Lee said in an e-mail.
“This was included as part of an overall ad buy that was finalized weeks ago. With President Trump threatening tariffs that would devastate Ontario’s economy, we will do whatever it takes to stand up for Canadians, including by taking our message to U.S. airwaves and the shows we know Republicans and President Trump watch.”
🤦
Tax dollars being sent to fox news, that’s worth impeachment in itself…
Is treason punishable by death to Canadians?
Civilian? no. Military? I had a buddy who SUPER fucked up and was consoled before his court-martial that he probably wouldn’t get execution because no one died through his ignorant subversion of naval security.
(Wasn’t even drummed out, but somewhere, in a kitchen far away from the light of day, they say he peels potatoes even still. So many potatoes).
It’s life in prison for treason in Canada, which I’d gladly see for Ford. Jail him.
Keeping in mind life sentences in Canada aren’t like life sentences in the US.
You can get parole after 25 years.
