Ontario voters go to the polls on Feb. 27 , more than a year ahead of schedule.

Doug Ford said he needs a strong new mandate for Ontario to confront trade threats from U.S. President Donald Trump .

Ford warned Ontario could lose upwards of 500,000 jobs if Trump follows through on his 25-per-cent tariff threat.

Opposition politicians, including local MPP Lisa Gretzky , criticized the snap election call as a needless distraction.

February is not the best time to be tromping out through snow to the polls.” With files from the Canadian Press . [email protected].
